Te Anau

[Stravinsky]

Going through old images of New Zealand and found two more to process.

Te Anau was one of my favourite stops as it was the entrance to a wonderful drive to Milford Sound.  The second is of Fiordland taken from an island in Te Anau lake

Beautiful images, Jon.

I like the first one best because of the color of the clouds and the reflection.

A beautiful country, which you have captured well.

Cracking images there. A country that I would like to visit.

I would love to go back, but the journey is horrendous.  On the way we stopped at Hong Kong for an overnight and because we were heading for our holiday I guess the journey was bearable.  However on the way back we flew from Christchurch to Auckland, then Auckland to Hong Kong (overnight stay again) but the final leg was horrible.  I suffer from RLS and the last 4 hours were unbearable and I spent most of it walking around the cabin

I know what you mean about the long journey, we have been to Australia twice now and the first time was with Japan Airlines so flew in to Tokyo where we were lucky with only a 3 hour wait for the flight to Cairns. In total I think the journey was 22 hours travel. On the way back we overnights in Japan.

The second time we went with Cathay Pacific so flew into Hong Kong. Then had 6 hours wait at the airport, before flying to Brisbane again around 22 hours. On the way back we stayed for a few days in Hong Kong, which was a very interesting place to visit.

Two great shots but that first is a cracker.
