Photography in New Zealand
On a vacation in New Zealand, before the plague, I was able to enjoy taking photos of the landscape around me. I have posted a few selections below, with a descriptive accompaniment of bad poetry.
All of these photos were taken with a Fujifilm X-T20 camera, using an 18-55mm f2.8-4.0 zoom lens. The full resolution images are 6000x4000 pixels - they have been resized to save bandwidth.
The trip was wonderful, and I will be visiting this beautiful country again.
Queenstown and Surrounds
A rose extends above its brethren. Its thorns, forgotten.
A famous road twists alongside a lake. The cliff face, volatile.
A small airplane climbs above the bluest of waters. The view, unparalleled.
A majestic pollenator samples some nectar. Its work, critical.
A road aligns itself within a valley. Its destination, irrelevant.
Aoraki And Surrounds
A lake darkens under the fading light of day. The sky, unfolding.
A lone figure observes a river from a bridge. Water, rushing.
A path rarely chosen breaks out into the distance. Potential destinations, innumerable.
A popular destination for reflection is visited. The perfect shot, elusive.
Haast Pass
A river of rare beauty stands out in the forest. Its froth, unending.
A waterfall parts a forest to smoothly feed a river. The foliage, imposing.
The aforementioned river is brought into frame. Stones lie, eroding.
Kerosine Creek
A stream fuels a spa by way of heat from the earth. The temperature, refreshing.
