These are great. Love them both. Might have to do a cruise down your neck of the woods one day. It is so great to have another person from NZ on DPS! Looking forward to seeing more of your shots. TFS.

You've got some great colour happening in that second shot.

Pretty cool shots.

Hi. The colours are natural, with a small bit of photoshop levels

Fantastic shots Les, breathtaking view in the first one and I love the colours in the second one, so vivid. I saw a smaller chess set outside Breakers resturant today at Mount Manganui, I was hoping to take photos of people playing but I think everyone was at the beach swimming. I look forward to seeing more from you.
