Landscape Pictures
It’s no wonder why the Church of the Good Shepherd has been described as New Zealand’s most-often photographed church… Just a short morning around the church was all I needed to capture two dramatic shots one of which I posted here previously, and the current one above. Post-processing with curves and saturation has been done to bring out the contrast and dramatic lighting of the scene.
It was amazing how the clouds parted and regrouped so quickly during our visit to New Zealand. This dramatic cloud pattern shot was taken right before I took this shot. For this particular picture, I tilted the camera more skywards to emphasize the pattern of the parting clouds.
Coming up with names for all of my New Zealand pictures are not easy, not when there were so many different pictures (with similar subject but yet different refreshing angles) to take at each spot we arrived at! The above is another shot I caught at Lake Tekapo. This was taken some time after dad took “Russell Lupins Bloom At Lake Tekapo”. Note the change in lighting… For my shot, I’ve decided to use a wider angle to catch the side-lighting over the blooming Russell Lupins.
