Hi Tom.
Yes, this is much improved over the previous :)
The blown-out clouds are a problem very often seen, and I have given some thought to using ND filters to avoid it.
This is truly a fine photo now.

I assumed you cropped it significantly but what you have here works very well. In addition to a graduated ND, a polariser sometimes works (depends on sun) and I have even used a combination of the two to tame the highlights. Well done, B

Kia ora ToM, stunning view of this well known lake, but you show a completely different angle from the normal view. The colours and lighting are perfect, the reflections on the water are great. Excellent clarity. Well done, thank you.

WOW!
This is probably one of the BEST landscapes I have seen to date!
I guess Peter Jackson (director of LOTR) very well knew why he should film in Nea Zealand. With landscapes like these....
Very well compose :)

Hi ToM, let's have a trip back to New Zealand! It is the most amazing place in the world (I believe).
Thanks for sharing this picture with us, it reminds me on my lovely time in Queenstown.

Wonderful panorama. I really enjoy the DOF and sharpness. Nice transition from lots of details of the left side of the photo to the silhouette on the right, accentuating the clouds and its shadow on water. Beautiful colors. TFS.

This is one of my favourites in your gallery ToM. Nice colours and nice depth. Good use of the foreground to create that depth.

Hi ToM

calm water reflection, foreground color plants, shadow mountains and sky/clouds, all a good mix, good POV and composition, the light is good.

Cheers
