Buller River, Nelson Lakes NP Photo

Photographer’s Note

Taken from the road bridge, looking back towards the Nelson Lakes National Park ranges: the water from the Buller River at this altitude tastes divine!

What a beautiful river. It looks ilke it would be fun to go rafting down as well. I wouldn't imagine I would want to drink any of it. Very nice shot, TFS.

Hello Jeff,

You chose a very good angle, the river leads us very well to the background, toward the blue mountains, what a lovely current of the water also the white foam of the waves are lovely.
Very well done, thanks for sharing.

Best regards,
John.
