Default New Zealand - Lake Tekapo

Went over New Zealand for holiday recently and returned this morning.
Some of the shots in Lake Tekapo.

Lake Tekapo is surrounded by golden tussock and snow-capped mountain landscape. The lake was originally a glacial valley and its stunning turquoise-blue colour originates from glacial sediment. The lake is 32 km long, 2000 feet above sea level, and 120 metres deep at its deepest part.

Thanks! It processed in Photoshop for resizing, borders, saturation and curves. No extra color added..
Used CPL and Cokin 81B Warm filter in some shots.


Adam: Go Go Go....

lui002: Thanks! Didn't see any from the place I stand..maybe too stunned to see the lake.
