Crowd gathered in central Wellington for the Rugby World Cup 2011 victory parade, 26 October 2011. Photographer: Dylan Owen (ATL ref. PADL-000716) In the era of digital photography it is becoming increasingly common for the Library to acquire photographs shortly after they were taken. Since October 2012, for instance, the Photographic Archive acquired three collections relating to the Rugby World Cup 2011. One of these was donated by Wellington photographer and librarian Dylan Owen, who has been gifting digital photographs since 2003. Donations also came from the Cup's organising body, Rugby New Zealand 2011 Ltd, and from Irish rugby fan David Condon. These two are currently the only photographic collections in the Library to have been taken on a mobile phone. It is expected that shortly it will no longer be unusual to be offered photographs of this type.
