Description :
This paper reflects on the employment of photography and caption-writing in research with HIV-positive men-who-have-sex-with-men in Auckland. These methods contribute to illustrate a range of negotiations of self and place beyond diagnosis. Engagement with these methods result in personal gain for many of the participants in the research. It is concluded that the continued (re)development of creative qualitative methods can add rigour to the attempts at representing the complexities inherent in the relationships between people and the places they occupy.
