TL's Photo Showcase Thread! - Page 6

About 1 and a half months ago I had a little break in the lovely city of Nelson, which is the sunshine capital of New Zealand. Here's just a picture on a typical sunny Nelson day:



Not too far from Nelson is the Abel Tasman national park, home to the famous Abel Tasman Coastal Track, which is frequented by many people from around the world annualy. Here's the start of the track which you can see on the left side of the picture:



I only had a look around the start of the track and didn't go any further. This one's a 360 degree panorama, but unfortunately there is some doubling that ruins it a bit (about 60 individual images put together):



And here's another shot from the start of the track:



During my stay in Nelson I also went to a nice beach not too far from Nelson called Kaiteriteri which I had not been to before, and here are just some pictures from there:





I had another more recent break where I went to Larnach Castle which is in Dunedin (where I'm studying). The castle itself is pretty cool but I don't have any decent pics of it. Here's a view from the rooftop of the castle:



About 1 hour north of Dunedin is a place called Moeraki, where they have the famous Moeraki boulders. Here are some pics with the boulders in the picture:





I can't really remember how these boulders are formed but they're pretty cool! Just for comparison, here's a pic (obviously not taken by me) to show how big these boulders typically are. The bottom left sludge is just stuff that accumulates over time that comes in from the sea.

Grossly over-processed!
