Re: The Great New Zealand picture thread
I don't know what I'm doing with a camera but, by some fluke, these came out pretty well.
- Lake Tekapo (normal and widescreen)
- Church Of The Good Shepherd (Lake Tekapo again)
- Lake Pukaki with Mount Cook at the far end (normal and widescreen)
The widescreen ones are just the normal ones, but I cropped them to convey to my mates just how wide the scenery felt - as you know these things never come across fully in photos.

Thanks Rob. Although I must let mother nature take a little bit of the credit.

Re: The Great New Zealand picture thread
Here's a few random photos from today
From Te Papa
Outside the station
The Beehive. I think the Pie Kart in the foreground really gives the shot some class

Julie, those are amazing - we were driving over the Maungatapu bridge about 7pm tonight and it looked like it was going to be an amazing sunset!
Where abouts in Tauranga do you live? Think you're coming on our 10km run in the morning aren't you? Liz, Marika and I do it every Wednesday.
