HaChayim Hayehudim Jewish photo Library has just posted several collections of Jewish Life in Australia and New Zealand including a wonderful collection of photos of the shul where I grew up, a separate collection of photos of the Holocaust Education Center which was initiated by my father, and pictures of the Library/Beit Midrash in the shul in Wellington (the Van Staveren Room).
He also has many gravestones, I even found a pictures of the graves of my Paternal grandfather and grandmother and Maternal Grandfather and grandmother.
Amazing photos, well worth a visit.

how wonderful, i am really interested to check out this collection of photos, i have a lot of friends from that part of the world.
How odd. Since it's New Zealand you'd figure the pictures would be upsidedown...
I think the photogropher held the camera upside down to make the pictures appear the right way up :)
