"High above Lake Matheson"

Alone at a popular lake, no one else is around to see the last light hit these mountains.

A partial rainbow in the clouds as the rain was coming down lake Wanaka from the Matukituki Valley. It was very fleeting, a few seconds after I took the shot, it was gone.

Diamond Lake, Wānaka.
This was from September last year, it was still wintery at that point, but the track was far less icy than it had been a few weeks before.

The rocks seemed to mimic the mountains in the background, with the reflections on the lake leading the eye towards Mount Aspiring.

A dreamy scene at Lake Hawea, before sunrise, with a strangely pink sky. I needed a long exposure as the light level was still quite low, and a telephoto lens.

Early morning at Waterfall Creek.
The lake level had recently gone down, so the rocks were very slippery!
Somehow I didn't fall in the lake.
