Nice job! I've never seen one in the flesh. I like the warm tone of the wood against the blue sky and I like the angle you've set the totem pole on in the image. Very enjoyable.

great photo!


but I have a dumb question... I didn't know that there were totem poles in NZ! I thought they were exclusive to north american aboriginal culture... is there a connection??

Great shot from another Kiwi on DPS. Cheers, Bernz

Hi. We have a Totem Pole here in Christchurch, donated by the American Deep Freeze who a based here for their flights to Antarctica. I think this is more a replica of a Maori carving and put in place as well, but two different locations

I love the colors! The pole really pops against that blue.

gorgeous colour! I especialy like the way the totems look almost alive. Are the eyes real or did you add them in PP?
