Not a stream to walk up very rough

Lovely falls but what a climb i got here in sunshine.

Huge Plug in the old Volcano

Part of the Huge rim of the old Volcano that we are standing in that made this area.

The small stream I had to cross before the tide came in.

The night after i arrived in NZ it was a clear night ( nothing but heavy cloud since i was lucky) so i went out to Whatapu head on the west coast looking Due west . the very last of the milky way for this season is sitting just above the horizon. Nine Pin ( Light house)and Moon are the light sources for this shot. My lap top dies third day got it fixed only to have it fail again. so a new one coming this is stitched cropped but not edited. shot low tide with the tide rising. first shot of the night. Enjoy a different land

A shot I never did anything with from the Kondinin trip Stars Every where and Mud. Clear view of the Emu in the milky way. Enjoy a little reflection. Top PIP Lake at the other end of this shot you will note its a bit later about 30 min from when we left here. bottom PIP contrast the emu in the western bow rather than the eastern main photo.
