Mt Cook, the tallest mountain in New Zealand, helped Sir Edmund Hillary to develop his climbing skills in preparation for the conquest of Everest.
Aoraki Mount Cook National Park is home of the highest mountains and the longest glaciers. It is alpine in the purest sense - with skyscraping peaks, glaciers and permanent snow fields, all set under a star-studded sky
Aoraki / Mount Cook is the highest mountain in New Zealand. Its height since 2014 is listed as 3,724 metres, down from 3,764 m before December 1991, due to a rockslide and subsequent erosion.
The new release 2.0. It works. It barks and listens occasionally. Comes in the moody colors black and tan.
For detailed description please read the manual. Oh God, where is that manual ...

No information on this photo, just one in my collection - they may be in the military - I just don't know.
Kandy, Sri Lanka These were planted in 1955. The crooked trunks are apparently normal for this species.
My take on lemons and limes. Much thanks to decadent cookie and Cookie Artisan. I could have and would have made this much harder than it had to be without your photos!
This is from by best friends wedding on 2/14/09. With all the things going on right now I was finally able to find some time to whip out the camera. . . over 600 images taken at this one. . . oh and did I mention that this was a freebe . . . I'm-a-gonna be busy for a while, LOL!! Anyway, just wanted to post something to let you all know that I'm still here, just been away from flickr and photography for the last few months. I promise to go through all of your streams some time this week if time permits.

Just near Mt Cook village was this view. It reminded me of the scenes from the second Lord of the Rings movie. It just needed some orcs.

This doesn't happen very often around here lately because I've been so busy, but tonight I had a craving for a home cooked meal so I made one. Pork roast, mashed turnip, scalloped potatoes, gravy and the obligatory apple sauce. YUM!

The return leg of 'The Bluebell Railway' tour crosses Cooks Pond Viaduct at Dormans Park, just north of East Grinstead. Taken from the public footpath here through the palisade fence, the portrait composition to include as much of the reflection as possible. Locomotives are Class 73s 73119 'Paul Taylor' & 73128 'Kent and East Sussex Railway' with 66792 'Collaboration'. The train would run to Acton Lane sidings where the 73s would detach, the 66 taking the train alone from there back to Nottingham.
On the Alaska Railroad as its train makes the 2.5 hour trip from Anchorage to Whittier. Runs along Cook Inlet and the Kenal Peninsula, famous for it's terrible earthquake in the 1960's. Just before Whittier the train shares the longest road tunnel in North America. For years only the train could use the tunnel. The Great Alaskan Earthquake happened on March 27, 1964 at 5:36 pm and registered 9.2 mega thrust, the second largest recorded. It ruptured a 500 mile by 125 mile fault area, raising some portions by 30' and dropping others by 8'. It rearranged the entire costal area that the train traveled. Our trip occurred on a very clear day, something the conductor said rarely occurs. The ride is usually fogbound.

Cape Tribulation fu battezzato così dal navigatore britannico tenente James Cook il 10 giugno 1770 dopo che la sua nave raschiò una barriera corallina a nord-est del promontorio, mentre vi passava sopra, alle 18:00.
Cook si allontanò dalla costa per dirigersi in acque più profonde, ma alle 22:30 la nave si incagliò su quello che oggi è chiamato Endeavour Reef.
Con la nave bloccata e gravemente danneggiata, erano necessarie misure disperate per evitare che affondasse fino a quando non fosse stata rimessa a galla il giorno successivo. Cook registrò il promontorio con il nome di Cape Tribulation con l'annotazione "perché qui iniziarono tutti i nostri guai ".
Cape Tribulation was named by British navigator Lieutenant James Cook on June 10, 1770 after his ship scraped a coral reef northeast of the promontory while passing over it at 6 p.m.
Cook moved away from the coast into deeper water, but at 10.30pm the ship ran aground on what is now called Endeavor Reef.
With the ship stranded and badly damaged, desperate measures were needed to prevent her from sinking until she was refloated the next day. Cook recorded the headland as Cape Tribulation with the notation "for here began all our troubles".

After two days of clear weather in our stay in Mount Cook Village the bad weather building up on the western side of the mountain range started to finally creep over.
I stepped out side at 11pm and saw the clouds starting to form illuminated by a full moon, too exhausted from our long day to go anywhere I decided to get a quick shot the other side of the road as cars leaving the closing venues in the village drove by.
