Mountains, Lakes and Rivers

Tom,
Very nice pic. Beautiful. (Shame that the net down samples images, both for economy of bandwidth and speed of transfer. I have often to compromise this at work.)
Hollyford was not too far to where we stayed in Manipouri/Te Anau. Next time we'll take more time to do detailed exploration.

Cascading creek off Hollyford River, South Island, NZ

hmmm ignore this, somehow lost its resolution in the modify and download. Irritating as this is a hyper detailed 250 mp image...

I have stayed at both Te Anu and Manapouri, great little towns. The cascade is off a gravel road that branches off the road to Millford Sound, perhaps a 1/2 mile walk. We were lucky to go to Millford and not have it rain! Never enough time, even three weeks is just a breeze by in NZ!

Cheers: T

View from the way down to Grindelwald (Swiss Alps)

very much like the picture. Conveys a great sense of alpine grandeur and human will and determination to perservere even in hostile environmental conditions. A very welcome change from all those alpine-postcard-blue-skies-tourism-advertising-pics seen so often.

However, at least on my screen there seems to be a lack of sharpness on the stone hut in the foreground. Not sure, what the cause is ... maybe just very slight camera shake? Maybe not enough sharpening in post processing?
