|
|

mary i and headed out of queenstown towards christchurch where she had to catch a flight back to sydney. we spent two days in the national park taking small hikes and oohing and aahing at the spectacular scenery.
|
|
|
tasman lake, formed by the melting tasman glacier.
|
|
|
mary takes in the view of the lake.
|
|
|
and then she sits by the lake.
|
|
|
and then she turns around and takes a picture of me behind her.
|
|
|
you can get some nice reflections off the lake despite the murky water.
|
|
|
as i was saying...
|
|
|
some of the lakes though had incredibly blue water, almost like paint.
|
|
|
lots of snow-capped mountains in mount cook national park.
|
|
|
and, finally....(drum roll please)......MOUNT COOK! my final picture of the wonderful country called new zealand. this mountain, mount cook, aoraki, is the symbol of the country so it is a fitting end to this gallery and to my photographic coverage of new zealand's stunning beauty.
