Hooker Glacier Valley in Southern Alps that lies in Mackenzie Region is probably my favourite place on the South Island of New Zealand. I don’t know why. May be because it is very familiar to the Left Talgar River valley in the Norther Tien-Shan mountain range where I hiked great number of times. I felt...

The road from Queenstown to Glenorchy that runs along the shore of Lake Wakatipu is rated as one of the top scenic drives in the world and the most beautiful road in New Zealand. Together with the Hooker Valley near Aoraki/Mount Cook and Lake Matheson it’s one of my favorite places in New Zealand. Also...

Lake Matheson, near the Fox Glacier in South Westland, New Zealand, is famous for its reflected views of Aoraki/Mount Cook and Mount Tasman. The waters of Lake Matheson are dark brown, so on a calm day they create the ideal reflective surface. That’s why the Lake Matheson sometimes is called “the mirror lake”. Lake Matheson...

I’m glad I took two tripods on my trip to New Zealand so I was able to shoot at sunset with two cameras with different lenses – wide angle and telephoto. Laziness is definitely a bad character trait for a photographer. Aoraki/Mt Cook is the highest mountain in New Zealand, reaching a height of 3,754...

There was really heavy downpour in the Mount Buffalo National Park the day we arrived there. It was raining without stopping for hours. I wasn’t expecting any rain at all and I started thinking about going to some dry place in New South Wales instead of spending long weekend in rainy Victoria. But roughly at...

“Anything that can go wrong will go wrong.” This is almost Murphy’s law photo. I tried to shoot this eagle while it was flying above me. Unfortunately it was so fast and so close that I couldn’t make any decent shot of it. As soon as I gave up and decided to shoot a range...
