New Zealand Scenery

We went on a road trip around the South Island of New Zealand, through some of the most beautiful scenery I have ever seen. I am not really into landscape photography but I certainly gave it a try on this trip. This first image was shot from Knight's Point on the West coast. There was a lookout offering some stunning views.


We spent a bit of time at the glaciers, though the weather made it difficult for us to get much in the way of photos. We couldn't get to the Fox glacier because the road was closed due to slips and floods, but we did manage to get to the lookout at Franz Josef glacier. There had been huge amounts of rain just prior to our arrival so there was no way to safely get across to the glacier itself from where we were. I was happy to photograph it from a distance.
