Default 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!

This one?



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.

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!

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.

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!
