Mount Ngauruhoe At Sunset
Mount Ngauruhoe is an active volcano in Tongariro National Park here in New Zealand. 2,291m elevation. I have been lucky to climb this amazing mountain in both summer and winter conditions. Although often regarded as a separate mountain, geologically it is a secondary cone of Mount Tongariro. A very special and spiritual spot. Rather than making a more common wide angel landscape shot I decided to experiment with a telephoto lens shot. This created a very different way of seeing and composing the image. Interesting. The gorgeous lighting was changing fast. It was fascinating to watch how the colour of the sky and reflections in the clouds changed from deep red to dark blue over less than 20 minutes.
