Moturau Lake Manapōuri sunrise...

Southland NZ

#Nikon #BlackAndWhite #Photography #GreatNZRoadie
Moturau is the correct Māori name for Lake Manapōuri. Roto-Ua, an earlier name for the lake, was given by the Waitaha explorer Rākaihautū when digging the lake with his kō (Polynesian digging stick), on account of the persistent rain that troubled his party here. The name Moturau is sometimes said to have been given by the northern rangatira Tamatea, who travelled through the area with his travelling party after their waka, Takitimu, capsized at Te Waewae Bay. Moturau is possibly also named after a daughter of Rakapatere, or may even refer to the many islands that existed in the lake. Manapōuri is in fact the name for Shallow Bay located in the eastern part of the lake. https://kahurumanu.co.nz/atlas

Color photograph of a steep mountain gorge with a rushing river cutting through red rock cliffs and dense evergreen forest. The scene opens toward sunlit, pale stone peaks in the distance beneath a clear blue sky. Concrete structures along the riverbank hint at human intervention amid the wild terrain. Captured on Kodak Ektar 100 film with a Pentax MX and 50mm f/4 macro lens.

Flower head

#monochromemonday #photography
A monochromatic photograph featuring a close-up, view of a dried flower head. The main feature is a dense, radial arrangement of numerous thin, spiky, and somewhat brittle-looking structures radiating outwards from a central disk.

Wizard Island #blueskymonday each time we have been to Crater Lake in the last few years there have been forestfires. This was one of the clearest days but still a little eerie. playing with clarity just seemed to fit. #eastcoastkin #landscape #photography #scape #nature #landscapephotography
looking between two large conifer trees out over Crater Lake in Oregon - Wizard Island floating on the silver surface of the lake. The sun is a starburst caught in the branches of the trees - strange blue clouds outline with smoky brown grey

I led an 8-mile loop hike Sunday in the Manzano Mountains of New Mexico, moving up Red Canyon, north on the Crest Trail, and down the Spruce Spring Trail (part one).
