The image you see here is of an abandoned petrol pump in Wanganui.

I'm standing for parliament for the Greens this year, and I want to use the image for a campaign advertisement.

The picture was taken by photographer John Corney. John has agreed to do a deal with me:

The winning bid in this auction will be a campaign donation to the Green Party. The donation will be used to pay John Corney a license fee, allowing the Green Party to have unlimited use of a high resolution version of this image until the end of November 2008.

If your donation is more than the "buy now" price of $500, the additional amount will be used as a general donation to the Green Party.

Any donation of less than $1,000 can be an anonymous donation for the purposes of the Electoral Finance Act (but I'd like to know who you are, and thank you personally!)

Many thanks, David Hay Green Party Candidate for Rodney http://www.sophocrat.co.nz
