Hi Tim, Marnie, Bob, David Thanks for the comments.
Tim - interesting - yes I see what you mean about the rhythym. An two votes for #5 which I only took on impulse - it is quite a heavy crop and I thought about cropping more to take out the sprinklers. David - I am frequently in ChCh - we should meet up sometime. And yes, the Mackenzie is certainly somewhere special - I love the Lindis too - have often meant to take some twilight pictures there. Bob - very nice gallery - love the map - we kiwi's approve that kind of pragmatic DIY approach - why buy a fancy map book to illustrate the route! The weather map in the paper does the job fine. I see from the route you took that you missed the road I photographed - you'll have to come back. Marnie - Jen has driven the road a million times and was doing me a favour - and I was surprised what you can capture out the window - composing the frame is an interesting exercise - you see a picture and shoot in an instant - quite refereshing really.
