[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Here is another shot of Lake Wakatipu. Again, this was taken on the way to Glenorchy which is a very small village about 50Km away from Queenstown.

This shot is similar to the last but one, but this time I wanted to include some of the foreground to give it a more rounded feel.

Again, the polariser was used to deepen the colour of the sky and take away the glare from the strong sunlight.

Beautiful landscape, good use of the polarizer.
So, the sky is a bit dark on the upper left corner.
Good composition and beautiful colors.
I'm going to make beautiful dreams this night...

Very nice capture Dan, I like those reflections. The foreground gives more power to your shot, and colors are perfect. Maybe i would have croped a little bit more on bottom, to get less sky in the frame. But it's good like that ! Thanks for sharing.

Hello!
One more shot of this beautiful lake! It looks like away from all trouble of our planet! So peaceful and wonderful nature! Well captured,

Léonie

Beautiful diagonal composition with plants on the foreground and snow mountains on the background. Colours and mountain reflections on the calm water.
Thanks for share.

Splendide, tout simplement. Couleurs extraordinaires. Amitié, Patty.

Hi Dan,
I must say, beautiful landescape. My type of foto. Great perspective and good lighting has created good colors. This is one of those photos that a mild contrast has worked really well.
regards,
Behrang

Very nice composition with a perfect foreground and great colors. We just want to follow the path along the lake shore with your picture. South Island's landscapes are really close to what we have in Switzerland.
