Captain Val Moore

Would anyone know of a photo that shows Captain Val Moore, or know of a place where I could find a photo of him? The information I have about the gentleman is as follows:
Full name is Valentine Stuart Moore, DSO, DFC, DFM (NZ 404924). He flew with 57 Squadron, 83 Squadron and with 692 Squadron on Mosquitos. He joined BOAC towards the end of the War and flew Haltons, Yorks, Hermes, Argonauts, Comet IVs and VC10s. He then moved to Nigeria Airways to fly its single VC10 and was operating 5N-ABD on its final, fateful flight in November 1969. He was born in New Zealand, most likely in 1913 as he was 56 at the time of the VC10's crash.
