New Zealand Landscapes *Image Heavy*
 

I'm currently sifting through my 1500+ shots of New Zealand and trying to sort them all out! I've done a selection here to whet the apetite for what is a beautiful part of the world. Really missing it now I'm back!

Feel free to critique any, I'm using some new lenses and filters and I'm pretty pleased with the way that most have turned out. I've got a lot of similar shots on my HD but as I dont have a pro flickr account yet, I'm limited with the number I can publish. Still have about another 600 to get through!

I should mention that aside from some PS work, the water colours are actually genuinely that colour. Its unbelievable until you actually see it. Its everywhere, and a feature of glacial water. You start taking it for granted after a couple of weeks.

brilliant pic, crying out for a canoe-did you travel up the road on the rh side?

Re: New Zealand Landscapes *Image Heavy*
 

Yeah, this is actually towards the hydro station on the way to Cromwell. There was some guys who had just finished Canoeing on there, and I decided to follow a track down the side of the river. I left the missus up in the van and told her I was going to be a couple of minutes. About 25 minutes later, I emerged from the other end of the track after getting sidetracked by the colour of the water!

You're getting the hang of that camera aren't you Rob!

Stunning pics, NZ is my dream holiday on a bike.

Pete,

Its an amazing place, strangely enough I saw that same site before I went! When on the road however, I rarely saw a VFR. Most were touring on hired DL650s. Aside from the odd generic hog, the most popular bikes I saw were SV1000s and 80's/90's Ducati's.

Ok let me just put my critic hat on :smt114 your pictures are cooler than penguin p!ss :D loving your work

Is it just a hobby of yours or are you a bit more serious than that? 7 and 8 look very professional, i'd pay to have 7 turned into a big canvas for our wall :)

+1 on the bike trip to NZ, on my to do list!
