Alpine Moonrise

Our New Zealand holiday has so far taken us from Christchurch to Lake Tekapo, Mt Cook, Dunedin and today to Invercargill.

We've taken so many great pictures it's going to take ages to work through them all!

Mt Cook was wonderful. I've got some great mountain vistas and glacial images...mostly taken on a three-hour trek to the Hooker Glacier.

I thought I'd post an image of a scene which presented itself right at the very end of our hike. It was a very nice way to cap off an enormously satisfying afternoon.

Hope you like it.

Nice shot Matt. Those gullies, buttresses and ridges look ripe for climbing!

Cheers
