Stuck In Customs

Late one evening near dusk we headed up towards the top of the Remarkables. It’s kind of a dangerous spot to take photos because there are steep drop-offs on both sides. The view up there is amazing, though. I think it’s cool to watch the planes land there at the airport from way above. I heard the pilots have to have special training to land here because they have to spiral down between the huge mountains for a unique approach vector.

I’ve shared images from this location before. It’s super easy to get to, just off a road and so many great views in so many directions!

Sometimes I stumble across a tree that just feels interesting. This was one such occasion, the week before last.

With it being autumn here in Queenstown there have been a few snow flurries in the last little while. I’m sure everyone who like a bit of the Queenstown winter sports action is starting to get a bit itchy for some action whenever the peaks start to get a covering! This is actually a fun photo from my recent workshop down here in Queenstown. On the last night, I was going to take everyone to my favorite ponds for shooting at dusk, but the driver said, “No, you should come to MY ponds, they are way better!” So, I went with the universe, and, sure enough, they were better! 🙂

One of the shorter excursions on my photo workshop last week was a little trip out to capture the view above Queenstown. Always a lovely view!

On the last night of the photo workshop, we headed over to this special little place… felt like we were time traveling!
