I wasn't aware that there were glaciers in NZ. I love the 2nd one from the top (ChristChurch).

They're all very nice though.

There's currently a none definite but highly likely chance we're emigrating there this year. Photos like this make me feel less scared about moving 12,500 miles to somewhere I've never visited before. Loving the cloud creeping across in the third shot.

At least I know if I run out of models there I'll not be short of other things to photograph. :)


Cheers, Dave.

Very cool, you'll love it there. I'm making the move from San Francisco to Sydney myself. :) Can't wait.

I'd like to say I'll pop in and say hi but it's still like a zillion miles away lol! The joys of being the lesser half of an aneasthetist falling foul of UK medical recruitment continues to abound.

Back to the shots though, they make me giddy about going, which has got to be good! :)

Hehe, I'm excited for you. Where in NZ are you attempting to move to?

I like all of the pics but the Tekapo Dam made me grin. It's a keeper. Good job. DanielD

Nice shots! I especially like the ones from the Port Hills

Manipula, if you do arrive down here, you're more than welcome to join the Kiwi chapter of POTN - you can find us by searching for GKPE (Great Kiwi Photographic Expedition).

Cheers gents, we're aiming for Wellington, but that's not solely the choices. We were looking at Christchurch and Aukland as well last night.


Cheers, Dave.
