    Port Hills Sunset

An opportunity for a local landscape shoot during New Zealand's COVID-19 level 3 lockdown; With restricted travel it's good to discover local treasurers and really appreciate being in the present - something I for one need to remnid myself frequently... life still holds joy and wonder when we allow ourselves to look for it.

    The Burnett Moutains

On the road in towards Mt Cook Village, New Zealand, you pass the Burnett range, looming ominously over Mt Cook Airport.

Weather patterns here can be incredibly localised; The sun tries to peek though a gap in the coulds, as the Nor' Wester brews and boils over the mountains.
