When i come visit this place and sleep nestled in next to a creekbed …….surrounded by red weathered craggy mountains……sit by the fire gazing out toward the horizon……kept company with ancient eucalypts……i ponder the thought of a land that is more than 600 milion years old…..
Some of my favourite landscapes ….
Heading into the mountains one icy cold morning …south island NZ.
The lake at Glenorchy South Island NZ
Looking south along the coast in the Catlins NZ
Looking north across Lake Te anau NZ
Slowly making our way up the river to Camp Leakey Kalimantan Indonesia.
South coast south oz looking south west… Just a few of my favourite landscapes
: )) Trees
Heading up the valley…. on the left the Forbes range.
The Rees valley winds back into the distance. What is really amazing is how the shape of the landscape changes the further into the valley you go. We visited this valley twice once on an overcast afternoon and then again the next day which happened to be bright blue skies…..
This is as far as we got in our not for wheel drive rent a car…..bitterly cold, incredibly still … the bush was amazing.
On my morning walk ….
Beautiful colours and shapes
Unimaginable diversity…….so good to see
