You've done wonderfully here!
Not far from the Devil's Punchbowl fall we also have a Bridal Veil Falls: http://www.bluemoon.net.nz/photo/photodb/view.php?p=449 I'm not sure how close you can get to that one; after the trek out to the first one we really couldn't be bothered finding out. I took that using the 6x7 at 180mm. When shooting the Devil's Punchbowl, I had to face downstream while wiping the mist off the lens, then whip around, get a quick shot then whip back to wipe the moisture off again. There's a reason why I chose the K2 over the Z-1p! I'd have loved to use the RB67, but after all the effort of lugging it up that track, I wasn't prepared to open it up with all that water. > DM> http://www.bluemoon.net.nz/photo/photodb/view.php?p=557&t=1 - Dave -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
