Situated on the shores of Lake Tekapo is the Church of the Good Shepherd, which, in 1935, was the first church built in the Mackenzie Basin.
The church is arguably one of the most photographed in New Zealand, and features an altar window that frames stunning views of the lake and mountains.
Luckily, the Church sits at one of the best spots on the planet for stargazing, which makes for stunning views of the Milky Way!

Totally fabulous. Do they have it lit at night, or did you place light on the inside? We visited the area so years ago, and it's such a beautiful church and area. Just love this image.

The warm light in the lower thirds balaned by the cool blue sky on top... beautiful.

The Mackenzie Basin (where lake tekapo is situated) is amazing! I’m lucky enough to only live 2 hours away from it. Stunning photo!
