Arrowtown – Stuck in Customs

Walking Down to the Lake

Daily Photo – Walking Down to the Lake

As the seasons change the grassy fields around Queenstown and Arrowtown transform into a rainbow of hues, from soft yellows to vibrant greens you can even spot some fiery oranges and reds among the blades. It’s like a magic carpet of colors that invites you to explore and capture every nuance with your camera.

Wolf Attack

Daily Photo – Wolf Attack

This is one of the many cool sculptures at The Hills country club in Arrowtown. The guy that owns it is Michael Hill, who also owns one of my prints and hangs it in his home here which is located on the golf course.

Flat Earth. New Zealand.

Daily Photo – Flat Earth. New Zealand.

I always have weird and surreal experiences on this golf course. Firstly, of course I take my camera all over the place along with my clubs so that looks a bit odd to everyone. Also, as it is a private club there is often no-one else nearby on the course so it’s just empty and surreal. I also listen to strange music while I roll around, taking photos, and the stopping occasionally for some golf. When I finished here on 18 one evening, I was actually the last person around… even that awesome clubhouse there in the distance was empty…

Lenticulars. New Zealand.

Daily Photo – Lenticulars. New Zealand.

This is a new area I discovered near Arrowtown and Queenstown in New Zealand. When the grasses get long in the late summer, they move in the breeze. It’s almost like you can see the wind itself while standing there. Those flying-saucer-shaped clouds are quite rare and are called Lenticulars. When you’re a photographer, you get to collect all sorts of useless information like that.

Arrowtown

Daily Photo – Arrowtown

This is a view from my home which is between Arrowtown and Queenstown. Those mountains are called The Remarkables and they look incredible at any time of the day and in any season. It’s truly a tableau vivant.

Attack of the Wolves

Daily Photo – Attack of the Wolves

I really doubt this guy would stand a chance against all these wolves. I mean, MAYBE he could take out 2 or 3… maybe 4 with a lucky swing. But, hey, maybe he’s an eternal optimist. I think that, while he is being eaten alive, he’ll be really questioning his optimistic outlook on life.

Over the Remarkables

Daily Photo – Over the Remarkables

I need to get my drone up more to take photos! This is a view from where i fly sometimes… the area is more restricted now but there are still several places for you to fly. With the zoom function on the Mavic, I can still kinda get the angles I really want. Speaking of which, right after this blog post, I’m gonna fuel up the drone for another photo this evening!
