p.1 #1 · New Zealand South Island (15 landscape pics)
Hi folks, I am just back from a 8 days holiday in New Zealand South Island where I enjoyed time spent with my family and some photography.
Managed to shoot almost all sunrises and for 3 miserable mornings, one was absolutely amazing.
The place has really some magic and the scenery is sublime, particularly in this beginning of Autumn.
I've selected 15 pictures of various landscapes.
Hope you enjoy :-)
Cheers
Tech Notes: my kit was A7r3, A6300, CV21/3.5, CV40/1.2, 16-35GM, 70-200G, Tripod and Filters.

These are all quality shots. I like them all. Technically all are great. Gorgeous scenery.
If I were to pick a favorite, #9 is it! I just love this image. Great color, balance, sense of place and more. That's a winner!

Wow, man. I was there for a week back in the mid-90's. That shot of the Shotover River is intense!!! The reason (besides it being, well, intense<grin> is that I jumped the Pipeline while I was there...and took the ride down the river. Talk_about_adrenaline_!!!!!!!!!!!!
Man, those shots brought me back to a good, good experience!!!!!!! Especially that river shot!!!! Man, what a memory!!!!!!!

Very nice images, I especially like #9 and #12. As was mentioned previously, there seem to be a few blown highlights and some over saturation, especially on #2. Headed to NZ in a couple of months, so it will be full on winter - I hope that I can capture as many good images as you did. Thanks for posting these.

Thank you all for the kind words and constructive suggestions!
I've in fact fixed the highlights in 2# with a luminosity mask but the system does not allow me to edit the original post to re-link the file.

Hopefully Fred or a Mod can please fix it and update the OP.
Thanks
