Sunset on a fun experience

Posted by jamesy (christchurch, New Zealand) on 25 November 2008 in Landscape & Rural.

After fiddling with my bateries I just had enough juice to get this last photo of the sun setting on Lake Ellesmere. It was such a fun day we must repeat it soon. Thanks To Max and Liners for a great afternoon and evening

I really enjoy taking photos and would appreciate your feedback so that I can learn as I go. I particularly enjoy photographing birds animals and landscapes

Spend as much as you can on your rechargables.The new breed of rechargables retain the charge much longer and you can top them up whenever you want.I use Sanyo Ni-MH 2500.

Beautiful Debbie - I love the way there are two separate water sections, each with its own reflection.
