All I can think of when I see this photo is how cold my feet were when I took it! I decided not to inundate my boots, so instead waded into the glacial Matukituki River barefoot. The pins and needles had me dancing on the bank for minutes afterward!

If you're ever in need of some grub while traveling Co. Rd. 101, then your belly will thank you for the best Chicken Fried Steaks this side of the Mississipi. Local live music, drinks, and just a knee-slappin time for the whole Fam. What'cha waiting fer?

Inspired by the Cajun dub 'CrawfishMania' by DJ Rhett!

This is along the incredibly scenic trail from Aoraki/Mt Cook Village in New Zealand towards the Hooker Lake and Glacier at the foot of Aoraki/Mt Cook. To get a brilliant day like this in mid winter was sheer luck. 16 August, 2014 Canon EOS 550D, ISO 200, f/11, 1/500 sec, 13 mm

Sunrise lighting up everything around Lake Wanaka -- the clouds, the mountains of Mount Aspiring National Park, and the lake itself -- in a gorgeous pastel pink colour. It only lasted for a few minutes, but it was worth the early wakeup call (as well as standing knee-deep in freezing water to get the shot)!

The brilliant hues of gorse light up an otherwise monochrome day at Erewhon Station in Canterbury. The hill in the middle of the valley is also known as Edoras, the village that the Rohirrim evacuate from to Helm's Deep in the second Lord of the Rings movie.

How amazing is this?! I'd hoped for auroras to appear during our time in Tekapo, since it's known as having one of the darkest skies in the world. We were lucky enough to have it two nights running (although we could only see it with the naked eye on one of those nights). I should have known the minute I got to the Church of the Good Shepherd that they could be seen with the camera, since there was a horde of photographers all facing south, which is probably not a normal occurrence at 11pm!

As we drove north along the west coast towards Hokitika and Arthur's Pass, we passed a sign for the Lake Mapourika camping area. I decided to quickly pull in and see what the lake was like. Boy was I glad I did that, since the water was completely still with an absolutely perfect reflection, with only the occasional ripple breaking the unending calm.

A misty mountain hop, skip & jump through Kangaroo Valley a few years ago revealed this gem of a waterfall flowing down the mountain. Being my first trip to the Kangaroo Valley, I didn't realize at the time that this wasn't a permanent feature, but a flow created by a heavy downpour. Subsequent trips were missing this great sight. Fitzroy Falls was impossible to see because of the rain & blowing mist, so I had to go back another day for that beautiful view. I needed the telephoto lens to capture this, which explains the slight fuzziness. I like the misty cloud .. bottom right.

Looking from Lake Matheson on the west coast of New Zealand, Mt Tasman is more prominent than Aoraki/Mt Cook. 14 April, 2015 Canon EOS 550D, ISO 200, f/11, 1/1600 sec, 250 mm

A chill was in the air and Holiday music mixed with the timeless jazz. This December evening in New Orleans was made cozy by the light of gas lamps.

The Hooker River was definitely in a rush to get as far away as possible from Mount Cook, which stands imposing at the end of the Hooker Valley. For the first half of the Hooker Valley Track, Mount Cook was hidden behind the mountain to the right, but it finally came into view here and stood tall over us for the rest of our walk.

The Hooker Valley track was absolutely worth the walk. This was one of the first epic lookouts we reached, just before the first swing bridge. Around every corner there seemed to be yet another amazing view!

Cruising down the gravel road between Treble Cone and the Rob Roy Glacier in the Matukituki Valley.

It's unbelievable how blue Lake Pukaki is from afar...but once you actually stand in the lake, as I was doing here, it's so clear it seems that you can see for miles underwater.

A rainbow appears over lupins blooming on Lake Tekapo's shore. A great way to end a bit of a rainy day.

The majestic Belmore Falls in the Morton National Park near Robertson in the Southern Highlands of NSW, Australia. This lookout is a short walk on the track from the carpark. Located on the Barrengarry Creek, the two falls measure almost 100 metres as the waters tumble into the valley below. Photographed with a Canon 400D with telephoto lens. I had to get back to this spot because the last visit was in polarising sunny light. *Features* All Water In Motion & Reflections In Water, July 2012. Cover Shots, July 2012.

Looking at this amazing view near Belmore Falls in the Southern Highlands made me appreciate how lucky we are in Oz to have such beautiful scenery. This is a 3 vertical photo stitch of photos taken from the lookout. I tried a 2 horizontal photo stitch but preferred this one. Lots of sunshine but few dark shadows .. perfect !!
