Journey into the Wild – Routeburn Track, Mount Aspiring National Park (2025)

A winding alpine trail leads the eye—and the spirit—into the heart of New Zealand’s Southern Alps. Captured near the descent from Harris Saddle along the Routeburn Track, this moody landscape reveals the Routeburn Left Branch in all its raw splendour. Mist clings to the peaks, golden tussock glows in the valley below, and the sense of solitude is as vast as the land itself.
