If you look to the bottom left there is a little road that leads over a hill with a tree – that’s the spot where the previous Lake Alexandrina shot was taken.

Apparently Gold Tier Dark skies here, almost guaranteed to be cloudy then…
if your wondering what that means..
“A Gold Tier dark sky refers to the highest level of night sky quality and darkness awarded by DarkSky International”

This shot is 21 vertical frames stitched together, its a rather large pano now and my poor computer had a coronary trying to edit it…18242 pixels wide to be exact.
Probably would have been easier just to swap to a short lens and fit it all in on one shot…

This is another on of those places you could just throw your drone at the scene and you will get something decent.
I took a bunch of shots here and they looked pretty good on the phone screen as I was flying over, but its really hard to get a good sense of the composition etc on such a small screen, anyways I do like this one and it reminded me of the cool scenes of Lake Eyre in Oz.
Hopkins Valley NZ, this is on the mouth of the river.

Thats Mount Glenmary on the right, if you follow the valley up that on the right hand side you will eventually get to mount Sealy which I think is pretty much a dead end, but over that and you back to Mount Cook. Looks easy on the map 🙂
Head to the left and your following the Hopkins River up to another dead end, probably some mad hiking trails over these spots tho.
