See cute New Zealand sheep! (New Zealand Holidays)

new zealand holidays

I always like to see New Zealand sheep. They look white, soft, and clean from far (this is not always the case when we see them closely). I catch this photos somewhere in New Zealand's North Island. FYI, in New Zealand the number of sheep is greater than the number of this country's population!

If you visit New Zealand then don't forget to buy this country's sheep skin products as a souvenir. Its cheaper to buy them in countryside I think because they are sold by the people who produce them. An exception though, several shops in Rotorua (a nice place to visit) sell souvenirs at a good price!

A late autumn afternoon (New Zealand Holidays)

Wife of mine wanted to catch photos before New Zealand autumn 2007 ends. So, in one fine late afternoon we went for a walk. It was not a bad one though, we managed to catch several good photos including the one that I put in this post.

I always a fan of late afternoon photography. I like to see long shadows form by the yellow late afternoon sun in photos. Even though in this photo there is no late evening shadow, but there is an effect of the yellow late afternoon sun. Hope you enjoy this New Zealand late autumn scenery as much as my wife and me did.

Waterfall, somewhere in Raglan, New Zealand (New Zealand Holidays)

new zealand holidays

Raglan is surfer paradise in New Zealand, at least that's what its claims itself. My friends and me plus my wife went there in November 2006. It was a weekend picnic. We planned to take a boat trip which we can see good scenery - sea, islands, strange rocks formation etc. Unfortunately it was not happen, the trip was fully booked on that day. It was a frustrating day then.

However, we saw something good on the way back from Raglan. As everybody knows, New Zealand is a house of natural beauties. My friends and me stopped at a waterfall. I cant remember the name of the place, but the photo is there next to this writing. This photo was taken from a look out. Travel in New Zealand, you will never be disappointed!

End of autumn (New Zealand Holidays)

This is one of my favorite photos. The background is a late evening sky. Its kind of dark blue, I didn't use polarizing filter even though its looks like I did. I can see this flower everywhere in New Zealand, shame I didn't know what its name. Wish to share with you other flower photos in the future!
