Focused - A Life Behind the Lens, is a visual feast of photos taken over the forty year career of the Otago Daily Times photographer, Stephen Jaquiery. Stephen joined the ODT in 1979 as a teenager when film was still processed with hand-mixed chemicals in a dark room. Now he's illustrations editor, and has released a book of his favourite photos celebrating one of the most demanding, but most rewarding jobs in a newsroom - the photographer.
