New Zealand Refections Photo

Photographer’s Note

Fiordland National Park is one of the New Zealand's largest and probably the most popular and visited too! This NP is in the South Island and is home to some of the most famous fiords and walking tracks.

Ice has carved islands from the mainland, leaving two large uninhabited offshore islands, Secretary Island and Resolution Island. Several large lakes lie wholly or partly within the park's boundaries, notably Lake Te Anau, Lake Manapouri, Lake Monowai, Lake Hauroko, and Lake Poteriteri.

This is a small lake and can be visited en route to Milford Sound and reflections of many peaks are seen. It is more beautiful on clear days, but such days are a rarity in fiordland.

Hello Pradeep,

Your way adding reflection to water surface shows more huge green from other parts of your photo. I like partial reflection and intensive green there.

Friendly Regards,

Hi Pradeep,

I like the saturation that this cloudy day brought to the colors in your image. The foreground grasses are very nice as is the reflection. Two aspects I think could have improved the photo are to have toned down the sky at least a little with a grad filter and to exclude the small bit of branch at the top left from the composition.

Cheers!

Bob G.
