Peter,

I got that one after a quick Google search.

Here's hoping it provides alerts. :fingers crossed:

Cheers.

lol @ possum beanie. There's a place in Hokitika that sells all things possum. I might buy one there.

Doing last minute packing and heading to the airport in 3 hours.

Hokitika ... try the Hokitika Hooch while you're there. Commercilaised version of the original home brew.
Have a good trip and enjoy the dark dark skies you will get down there.

Welcome back.

Cheers, boys. Just at airport station. $17 for a single ticket out west. What is this? When did this happen? Yikes!

The trip was largely uneventful; I think I took 6 pictures. There wasn't a single sunrise or sunset with clouds. It was clear the entire time.

I did try something different at Mount Cook, though, and I look forward to processing the image.

heh that sure makes it hard. It was like that out at the Kimberley. Every day was a carbon copy of the previous - not a single cloud in sight for 13 days.

That sucks! Hope you got to make pictures in the shade, at least?
