Queenstown lights and reflection

Our new house and a particularly colourful sunrise.

This a view from my drive to work.

Autumn Toadstools.

These two shots are both taken in Queenstown Gardens on the same morning just after sunrise.


This is the road to Glen Orchy. I love the light from the car headlights on the water and the rocks.

This is the TSS Earnslaw, a coal powered ship that’s been sailing on Lake Wakatipu for almost 100 years. The lights look amazing at night when it’s coming into dock.


Now it’s getting on for winter I’ve been enjoying the lights of Queenstown at night, particularly the reflections off the water.

The smoke coming out of this chimney was being lit from behind. The long exposure time of this photo really exaggerated the light and colour in the sky.

This is the Kawarau river just down the road from our house. I took these pictures last week on the way home from work.
