"Lines" NZ 2012 #2
Through December I am going to show some work that I have produced in the past that has not been posted yet.*I Think?"
While a lot of New Zealand reminded me of California, I also kept running into some really interesting vegetation with foliage like I have never seen before.
This photo shows several such examples. Although I made the big tree below my main subject, all the other trees around it were unfamiliar to me, as well.
Picton, NZ
Just as we were exiting the Zealandia ecosanctuary, this colorful bird appeared out of nowhere and granted me some nice photos!
Wellington, New Zealand.
Early morning on the way to work, saw Moon and Venus. Had to pull over for a sec to take a quick photo no telephoto lens but a point and shoot camera! :)
I had never paid much attention to the common Mynah until I saw this handsome bird in Sydney, Australia
Akaroa is a region that is a little like a mini Florida sticking out into the ocean on the east coast of New Zealand, just south of Christchurch. However, Akaroa is a mountainous region with a few sparse roads and it is mostly uninhabited. It is great for a drive and for hiking, though. The views of the sprawling mountains and various bays formed at the interface between the mountains and the ocean, are really spectacular.
New Zealand
View of Wellington from Mount Victoria. After a mostly rainy day, we still did not have the best clarity and it was getting late in the day, but views were spectacular nonetheless.
All these are photos are shots of essentially the same urban landscape. Virtual Reality folks will probably love a scene like this!
Dunedin, New Zealand. This lighthouse on a hill is accessible by land only if you hike up the hill. We didn't have the time for it, so I could only shoot from a distance. Here are a couple of shots from land and a couple from our cruise ship. At the base of the hill is an albatross colony that's tough to get close to.
