I decided to take part of the week off and went for a three day road trip around the Cental North Island.
These shots are in chronological order.
There are a few more I can add if there is any interest.

Some great shots! The third one is my favorite. I love the beehives though and the second to last.

The first one is amazing! My eye actually rolled down the stream at pace as if it was rolling through the water! That's an uncommon thing to happen to me, it was brilliant haha. Great composition and use of line.

Numbers 10 and 12 are also awesome. Don't we have a beautiful part of the world down here? :).

Then live in the SI ;) ... snow everywhere (sort of)

Freo ... whoa. Love the 2nd one in the 1st set - brilliant contrast (excuse the pun) between technology and nature.

Cheers.


Shoot as if it were film
