Wellington photographer Stephen Patience is still proving the capital is alive and well with his latest time-lapse video Wellington ... on a good day.

The one-minute clip, which took a year to produce, is a vibrant journey through the capital from shopping in Lambton Quay to zooming down the cable car with its recently installed tunnel light show.

Patience has entered the clip into the annual NZ Geographic Magazine photo competition, which has this year added a time-lapse category.
