Ruapehu from HW3

Paul from Levin

When coming back in a bus on HW3 from Bushy Park I was head down deleting or keeping photos of Hihi taken in the Bushy Park forest. A friend drew my attention to the view outside the window. No time to adjust the settings used to photograph small birds in the forest so I pointed the camera at the scene. The resulting colours were weird partly because of the the camera settings and probably also because of the bus's window glass. So here is Ruapehu in B&W taken from HW3. Please enlarge.

Mute Swan. 2017-1

Paul from Levin

Mute Swan. Note the interesting parallel, horizontal lines on the swan. I suspect they might be created by reflections from the ripples on the water surface. Please enlarge.
