This shot is taken from off the road heading into the Hooker Valley, Canterbury, New Zealand. At the end of the road is the track leading to Aoraki (Mt Cook - not in this shot). Unfortunately I couldn't walk this track due to lack of time, something I now regret! To the left is Mt Sealy...I think? What struck me the most about this scene apart from the incredibly rugged snowy mountains, was the golden colour of the grass. The contrast between the blues and golds was absolutely stunning.

Stunning Views! Brings back great memories of my time there in 2016. Did the Hooker Vally trail with my husband. We enjoyed every second and had a very rewarding beer or maybe a few at the end :)

New Zealand is one of the most beautiful countries in the world. It's so many beautiful countries rolled into one, and I'm blessed it's so close to Australia!
