Although there was not much snow at the time, this majestic mountain caught my eye. Unfortunately there is a slight glare from the windscreen of the car.

Pauline you make New Zealand proud, producing fotos like these. Great shots but you need to straighten those horizons.

The cold snow which we are now leaving behind us as spring is here, yet in the USA they will be going the opposite way so we should be flooded with their snow scenery.

Thanks for sharing. Cheers, Bernz

Well Bernz, I don't know what happened there because I straightened 1, 3 & 4 in Picasa, so it has obviously taken place in the transfer proccess...nevermind, better luck next time. Thank you for your feedback anyway.

Thanks for the feedback Gaallan. It certainly is a beautiful spot for camping. We love climbing down through the trees and on to the lower beach to fish.
