Beautiful clouds in Wanaka lake

It's minus 8 and the rocks are slippery with ice, my hands are freezing but it doesn't matter, 'cos I'm very excited by the lighting and the wonderful view !

I am taking a break from Flickr for a while so thank you in advance for viewing my images.

Have a wonderful weekend dear friends :-)x

Rose from The Rose Garden, Rotorua, New Zealand

This area is covered in limestone rocks, situated in South Canterbury, New Zealand.

A fellow photographer and I were treated to a really nice sunset.

Foggy, rainy day at Milford Sound

From Wellington I took the Interisland Ferry to Picton on the South Island. This shot taken inside the ferry to give an idea of the accommodation. The ferry was very comfortable and the crossing smooth, although I'm told it can at times be rough. I've done it twice and it was very smooth both times.

Photo was taken in Portobello, Dunedin, NZ.

Early morning spiderweb in Hamilton

'...down from the door where it began

now far ahead the road has gone

and I must follow if I can.'

We hopped on our chopper and headed out of Milford Sound which allowed us to see first hand the majesty of this magnificent natural wonder. With sheer walls towering 1,200 meters or 3,900 feet and plunging to the depths of near 1000 feet or 291 meters it's no wonder that Rudyard Kipling once call the sound the 8th wonder of the world. We will be back!

Among the first birds I came across in New Zealand, I heard the australian magpie before I saw it. It was directly overhead and was making the most incredible burbling sounds that were mesmerizing. I think I will always remember that first encounter.
