Those magnificent green hills

An other impression of New Zealand, here the green hills around Rotorua from the air whil flying a DHC Otter float plane.

The weather was wonderful creating fine light in the afternoon. I really enjoyed the flight and the view from above.

Beautiful work Hansie! They GLOW! Excellent work, out a plane window! Were you hanging out the window? How do you not get that awful distortion the windows give? Nice patterns here!

Hi Hans,
You are absolutely right, these green hills are magnificent. For me, this landscape is still unbelivable. :) Beautiful fresh tones, great representation of geologic features of New Zeland. TFS, amazing!
Greetings,

Wow what a beautiful sight from up there! The many shades of green are so vivid, and I really like the way the shaded areas and hightlighted areas define the hills ... and the valleys .. and the little lakes. Just a great shot Hans.:)

You wouldn't be used to hills Hansie..Looks very dry to me.. you need to come back and see them when they are REALLY Green!..they would look rich green then.

Nice POV here, and great shot from the plane

Glad you like your NZ photo book..:-)

Hi Hans,
Awesome shot! So clear for being shot through a plane's window. Great deep colours. And to think, someday all of this land will be turned into houses. Someone will look back on this photo in hundreds of years. Nice work.

TFS,
Scott.

Oh yes, all our wrinkled hills, no doubt formed by volcanic action many years ago...
It is so interesting to see the cattle tracks on either side of the bush clad bases of the valleys Hans.
A view we certainly don't get to see while driving our cars around here.

hi Hans

This is a beautiful aerial shot of the NZ landscape that is really very impressively done from high altitude to still show such green covered slopes of the terrain and good sharpness of the detail of the land below. It must be great experience to go up in the air and shoot photography.

Great work.

tfs, bill
