Lake Mapourika, a hidden gem on the West Coast of South Island, New Zealand. A few kilometres north of Franz Josef. Exact coordiantes, 43°19'44.5"S 170°12'50.4”E.
Lost count on how many times Iv’e been there. Seen it on rainy, windy, frosty, foggy, gloomy and clear days. Done some astro too! But the only time I saw this lake explode in candy light was on my first visit. Yeah, pure luck!
This was waaay back 4 years ago when just “being there, having fun and don’t know the half of what I was doing with my camera” all that mattered to me hahaha! Good that I was taught to take multiple exposures - over + under’s, I can now go back to my old images and redevelop them properly. Plus with tons of online tutorials, video workflows, processing, even action panels (where a click of a button can do everything for you) that are readily available, I say sky’s the limit when it comes to expressing one’s ART in developing-editing photos ;-). Best tutorials for me? SB’s videos, TK’s Panel and RD’s painting with light!
Think about the beauty of life. Do what you love, have fun, be mature and lose the ego. You live only once, enjoy it while you can.
