Twenty-five years ago, Phil Crawford and Fraser Munro produced a photographic essay of images that depicted 50 scenes of Morrinsville, Crawford’s home town. Aside from one image, all of these photographs were taken in the last week of April in 1993. Things have changed significantly since then, but these images are ageless in that they still reflect the heart of all rural communities: the people.
