South Island, New Zealand

[Timberland]

After posting my North Island Photos of the beautiful New Zealand, I'm now posting my South Island photos.

We stayed on the stunning South Island for 2.5 weeks and it was a great time.
All photos taken with Canon 400D, Sigma 10-20, Canon 24-105L and Sigma 100-300.

Comments are more than welcome, I would like to learn. So here's the gallery:

Thanks! It's your own country Lazy_B and it's stunning.

If you take a look in the gallery all the places are mentioned. The third one was taken at The Pancake Rocks, Punakaiki.

Have fun on your trip down south. I see you live in Wellington, lovely city. It's actually the city that I enjoyed the most (especially compared to Auckland).

Allthree are very well exposed and tastefully composed

The second and third ones, especially, can easily rank in popular geography magazines, IMO!

I only found the background a little bit bright as to distract from the fabulous rocky scene which you might as well arrange way better than the following sketch : )

Thanks for the compliment bahadir! Maybe the background of the last one could be a (slight) bit darker (I'm not a Photoshop expert too).
