    Burkes Pass New Zealand

    Burkes Pass is an interesting place with a sort of museum/film set feel to it. It straddles state highway eight (SH8) between Tekapo and Fairlie on the South Island. Well worth stopping at to wander around.

    #1 low res version, a larger version is on Flickr. LINK to larger version



    #2 an alternate view of the scene, again a larger version is on my Flickr Photostream. LINK to larger version

        That's a lovely composition and an image packed with the kind of detail I enjoy zooming in on so a shame the resolution on Flickr is so low.

        Cheers,

          Lovely pic Peter, drove through there new years eve many years ago on our way to Tekapo. Unfortunately the weather for us (from my notes) was heavy cloud so would not have your opportunity for the pic, it was also back in pre digital (and canon) days!

            Great shot, so much going on. I agree with John though, we need a larger version on Flickr!

              Very nice image and agree looks like a place where you can spend plenty of time. Might be some nice shots early/late in the day.

                  Your wish is my command, you better be quick though John, as I don't really like having high res images sitting on Flickr

                  Chris I have also added an additional Hi Res image on my Flickr photostream. It has a bit more to look at

                      A bit of a bump, I have added "LINKS" to larger versions of the two images at post #1 above.
