Mt Cook and Mt Tasman
Posted by jamesy (christchurch, New Zealand) on 8 February 2009 in Landscape & Rural.
typically on the morning we were leaving the weather cleared up completely and the photographic opportunities improved. The Mountain on the left is Mt Tasman NZ 2nd highest mountain and the one on the right is Mt cook NZ highest
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

oh so beautiful!!!! my favourite sight in NZ! wow! great image Deb with the fence and the shed in the image - i love it! i think if you played with the levels a bit and maybe cloned out the branch on the right then this one would definately be a shot to frame and hang on the wall! super job!

EYES WIDE SHUT from United Kingdom
A huge sigh as my eyes take in the immense beauty of this scene. Mother nature is a Goddess, and the splendour that we are so privileged to enjoy on this wonderful planet, never ceases to amaze and delight these eyes. An exquisite photograph which brings beauty to my screen, and transports me back to the field, where I stand and marvel at such magnificence.
A gem, Debbie

I am drawn to the blue and green in this picture. Beautiful. Isn't this always the case. The day a trip is ending the sky will clear up.
