"Balloons over Waikato" festival 2016. The weather was a mixed-bag this year, but on the morning of this shot the conditions were perfect for flying!
As you know, I'm a flower lover, so that I'd have many shots of any bloom. This is the upload never done before. This field took my breath away, one of the highlights of the trip.
Note: This was taken in December, however, it's SPRINGTIME in NZ.
Sometimes when driving in New Zealand I just had to pull over, admire the view and take the odd photo. Such was the case on the road from Raetini to Ohakune on the North Island. I think it was a good choice; you be the judge. I'll know if the shot gets any faves.
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.
Picturesque Kaikoura is a town on the east coast of the South Island of New Zealand, 180 km north of Christchurch. The town has a beautiful setting, as the Seaward Kaikoura mountains, a branch of the Southern Alps, come nearly to the sea at this point on the coast. There are many walking tracks up and through the mountains.
Kaikoura is a popular tourist destination, mainly for whale watching and swimming with or near dolphins. There is also a large colony of southern fur seals at the eastern edge of the town.
Mt Taranaki, New Zealand. This is the kind of view that makes you want to take a deep breath and just enjoy life
This shell was given to me many years ago by a special aunt. . Lots of memories and happy times.
A very happy New Year to you all in Flickr land
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.
