Swamp lakes glenorchy nz

One afternoon we did the swamp board walk at Glenorchy deep in the southern alps of New Zealand. The skies were an incredible blue, the temperatures freezing, the sun glorious and the reflections mesmerizing!!

A fabulous family outing …… a great boardwalk, lots of places to stop and sit, to gaze at our planets incredible beauty……

Mirror mirror on the lake…..

On the way south from Milford sound late afternoon and no wind ……zoom in on the sign, might have to squint a bit …true New Zealand humour!! As is the scenery…….

The place felt serene and surreal full of the magic of nature in all her glory : ))

Taken with my phone ……camera battery had run down…..

Under the jetty at Mundoo channel

A beautiful autumn day…..its lunchtime,  not the best time for taking pictures,  but I was captivated by the water and light under the jetty…..

Jewelled wormcastings…..

Old coiled chain links…..

Weekly photo challenge – reflections

Amazing….i love the potential of reflections. While visiting kalimantan last year I travelled up the Sekonyer river and these reflections are from that trip

There were times when if you closed your eyes and then opened them again you couldn’t really tell up from down.

End of year Reflections

I want to express my thanks and appreciations to all those who have followed, liked  and commented on my blogging efforts this year. It has been an amazing learning experience for me….an ongoing one I might add. I have learnt so much about life in other places, people’s   incredible capacity to be creative beings and the myriad of ways that this can be expressed.

I feel like I know a few of you a little bit through your photos and writings. I have been blown away by people’s talents, creativity, empathy and generosity both in the sharing of knowledge and the sharing of their personal experience and passions.

In the bigger picture it fills me with optimism for our future when I explore other’s blogs, read freshly pressed and appreciate the incredible images that grace my screen on a regular basis from all over the planet… thank you  again and I look forward to the coming new year with anticipation and joy

Yours in gratitude ….Trees
