Waterfall at Fox Glacier

Walking to a view point of Fox Glacier, in New Zealand, we crossed this beautiful waterfall. It is times like these, that you don’t wish to be anywhere else. Further down, we had to cross this over slippery rocks and rushing water. It is a wonder I didn’t fall in.

Fox Glacier is part of the Westland Tai Poutini National Park (established 1960) which extends from the highest peaks of Kā Tiritiri o te Moana/Southern Alps to the remote beaches of the wild West Coast. It is an area of magnificent primeval vistas; snow-capped mountains, glaciers, forests, tussock grasslands, coast, lakes, rivers and wetlands.

This world-class scenic landscape has been recognised as such with World Heritage status.

This was taken with a Canon DSLR EOS 350D camera and timelapse/long exposure of 1 second, handheld (leaning on a railing).

    Superb !!! A real winner of an image, Elana, with lighting, composition and timing !!

  • Elana Bailey replied

    Phil, many thanks and to think that I did this without a tripod too. I rested the camera on the rails instead, as I didn’t have one with me at the time. Cheers very much.
