• Happy birthday to me! Couldn’t have asked for a better bday gift than being exactly right here at this exact time. No matter where you are there’s usually a way to find some gratitude, but it’s much easier in places like this ain’t it? Dang. Have mercy. _______________ #newzealand #rotorua #lake #pier #dock #sunset #autumn #fallcolors #landscapephotography #landscape #hiddengem #nature #niftyfew #discovernz #keepitwild #wanderlust #sonyalpha #a6600 #sonyalphasclub #airnzshareme #findyourpeaknz #roamtheplanet #gottalovenz #newzealandguide #wonderlustnewzealand #escapeandwonder #whatsthedifferencebetweenapierandadock

  • This is the most underrated walk I’ve ever been on. Having only stumbled upon it by luck due to needing to fill some time, I wasn’t expecting much. But this place blew what little expectations I had far and away. An absolute hidden gem. Good to know that the crowded insta-famous spots aren’t the only places to find the awe of this country. This one was south of Te Anau in Fiordland National Park, but I might keep the exact location to myself for this one 😉 _______________ #newzealand #fiordland #fiordlandnationalpark #panorama #landscapephotography #landscape #mountains #hiddengem #nature #hike #niftyfew #discovernz #keepitwild #wanderlust #sonyalpha #a6500 #sonyalphasclub #airnzshareme #findyourpeaknz #roamtheplanet #gottalovenz #newzealandguide #wonderlustnewzealand #escapeandwonder

  • This waterfall was absolutely roaring after Southland had seen the most rain it had seen in a long time. So much rain that the whole area was in a state of emergency due to flooding. Walks were shut down. Roads were flooded. Towns were even evacuated. I can’t say I was able to tick as much off my list during that trip as I wanted to on account of not having a boat. It was easy to think I’d done something to anger the karma gods or something. Why else would it happen during the short week I was there? But then I remembered the world doesn’t revolve around me and my plans, and loads of people were affected to an even greater extent than myself. The world is chaos sometimes and on occasion you get caught up in it. On the other hand sometimes the world is beautiful and you can get caught up in that too. Guess that’s the ride of life. Just keep on ridin’. And maybe get a boat. 🙃 ______________ #newzealand #waterfall #southland #catlins #lifelessons #nature #moody #niftyfew #discovernz #keepitwild #wanderlust #sonyalpha #a6500 #sonyalphasclub #airnzshareme #findyourpeaknz #roamtheplanet #longexposurephotography #longexposure #gottalovenz #newzealandguide

  • I like trees ok? Particularly two-faced trees like this one. If you’re gonna be two-faced be a tree, cause two-faced humans I have a different opinion of. Also walking the first part of the Kepler Track in the rain is the way to do it. All the moss is like BAM, I’m moss. ______________ #newzealand #fiordland #forest #tree #kepler #greatwalk #moody #niftyfew #discovernz #keepitwild #wanderlust #purenewzealand #sonyalpha #a6500 #sonyalphasclub #airnzshareme #findyourpeaknz #roamtheplanet

  • Sun had just set over the hills leaving the cloudless sky with this soft pastel gradient. As we walked along the beach we came across this perfectly still tidal pool. I guess turning your camera away from the sunset can be kinda cool sometimes! I’d heard photographers say that but I was sure it was a myth. _______________ #newzealand #pakiribeach #beach #ocean #oceanfeels #pastel #sunset #serene #reflection #niftyfew #discovernz #keepitwild #wanderlust #sonyalpha #a6500 #sonyalphasclub #airnzshareme #findyourpeaknz #roamtheplanet #gottalovenz #newzealandguide #wonderlustnewzealand #escapeandwonder

  • This walk up to the highest point of Great Barrier Island is probably my favorite of any I’ve done on the north island of NZ. Rewarding almost the entire way up and not too long. Winning combination. Tough to beat having the summit all to yourself as well which perhaps was just luck. I didn’t plan on returning to Great Barrier Island, but it was so good I just might have to someday. _______________ #newzealand #greatbarrierisland #mthobsonsummit #summit #sunset #nature #explore #hike #landscape #islandlife #oceanfeels #landscapephotography #discovernz #keepitwild #wanderlust #nzmustdo #purenewzealand #sonyalpha #a6500 #sonyalphasclub #airnzshareme #findyourpeaknz

  • Great Barrier Island doesn’t disappoint. Very memorable place to have rung in the new year this year. My favorite part believe it or not wasn’t this magnificent beauty here, but how the other drivers on the roads would wave as they passed. And how they’d wave. A raised pointer finger off the steering wheel. Must be the GBI salute. ______________ #newzealand #greatbarrierisland #landscape #landscapephotography #atmospheric #fog #nature #discovernz #keepitwild #wanderlust #sonyalpha #a6500 #sonyalphasclub #airnzshareme #findyourpeaknz #neverstopexploring #moodygrams #gottalovenz #newzealandguide

  • This stream reminds me of once as a kid when I was walking on a beach at night with my dad. We came across a stream just like this one and he didn’t want us walking through it because we might get sucked out to sea. I was quite thin but I think I weighed more than a feather 🤔😂🤷‍♂️ _______________ #newzealand #beach #stream #sunset
