Another Awesome set Keenlearner! I'm going to start calling you Keenteacher! I like your style of photography and I guess it helps to have the beautiful NZ scenery.
That sunset out side your front door is amazing. Love the arch as well.
Thanks for Sharing these
Michael.

Thankyou Michael for your very kind feedback. It is from people like yourself that I am learning so much and for which I am very grateful. They say practice makes perfect, so I will just keep on practicing. LOL

Thankyou Hayward for your lovely feedback. You are indeed an inspiration, your photography is truly master class and if I can achieve anywhere near that standard I shall be very proud.

Wow Pauline, Your work is always so nicely presented. I love all of these wonderful photographs. The power in the waterfall is awesome and wow what a view from your front door. That sky is on fire. I just love them all. Outstanding work.

Dave.

Thankyou Dave. Yes we have beauty all around us here in NZ, a lot of it still to be captured by us, but hey, I'm sure we will eventually cover most areas. I find it totally mind boggling to think that within seconds, these photo's are being seen all over the world...isn't technology wonderful? Hey look forward to more from your end too, that is probably the only way I will ever see England LOL

Fabulous kiwi scenery shots - hope you have these in flickr groups for NZ. Love the sunset fotos - rich colours - pity the street light is in the middle. Cheers, Bernz

Thankyou Bernz. I will have to speak with the Management over the street light, I can't have it hampering my sunset shots LOL. But you're dead right, it kinda spoils the pic huh?
