Another stunning shot from the air Hans. What is interesting about Tikitapu is it is not fed by a river, nor feeds a river. I'm happy to see the Douglas Fir trees still standing, the owners want to fell them. The people of Rotorua are against it, I hope they prevail.

Beeaauuutiful! The colours are amazing and the sharpness is fantastic - I reckon those two are the hardest things to get with photography out of a plane! I went skydiving in Rotorua, and the view of these lakes from 10 000ft was really something to behold...Such a lovely part of the country and you captured it well.

Cheers,

Cadi

Always so picturesque driving past these waters, but seeing it from on high makes the lakes look even more beautiful.
The photo is all blue, white and green - quite stunning to see, Hans

Hi Hans

A marvellous aerial view of the volcanic lakes around Rotorua. I took a scenic flight too, but was shooting 'super 8' movie film. Wonderful colour contrasts between the blue & green. Tfs!

Beautiful shot Hansie! I still feel the horizon is off, even though you said you corrected it. I will do a WS for you! What a view, all those lakes isolated is so cool!

Gutentag Hans,

I don't really speak german. Excellent image for the Friday theme. The high POV gives the impression you were a bird (mechanical bird of course). Good sharpness, exposure slightly on the dark side (it was a caracteristic of the D70), but it could also be calibration of my monitor. However, it gives splendid colors saturation. Splendid details in the clouds, balanced compostion. Nice depth. I love it. Great shot and TFS.
