New Zealand and my hijacked website!

I am currently in New Zealand for a few shoots, firstly I have just completed an editorial trip for Australian Snowboarder Magazine, which took in Mt Hutt in the Canterbury region of the south island and an amazing heli boarding shoot up at Mt Potts heli park.Then I'm off to do the Billabong 2009 winter catalogue shoot in Wanaka, which will be one of the biggest commercial shoots I have done yet!
During my time at Mt Potts we were without mobile phone reception, internet or television. We were truly isolated from the outside world. Also during this time I was featured on the Sydney Morning Herald and The Age's websites with a gallery of my images. What I did not know until this morning when driving back into mobile phone reception was that my website was attacked by a malicious code script which destroyed the functionality of the site and tried to upload a trojan to peoples computer's. The timing could not have been worse! This has never happened in all the time I have had a website and I couldn't believe how unlucky I was to have this happen when I was being linked to on two of the most popular news websites in the country.
Heli Park, however, was absolutely incredible! We had a whole mountain to ourselves with our own helicopter waiting for us at the bottom of the hill waiting to drop us off on the next peak. The snow was pretty amazing and did I mention the helicopter? This was my first time in a chopper, and I loved every minute of it! The scenery around this region of New Zealand is nothing short of breathtaking, it would have been an amazing experience without the untracked powder runs waiting below us, the powder though, was lots and lots of fun!
Here are some photos, more words to come very soon!
