Yes, yet another installment from my recent NZ trip. This group were taken in Rotorua. The first image was taken with the Nikkor 12-24 DX, the remainder with the Nikkor 28-70 f/2.8

great shots Peter
2 & 3 are my favs
1 is also very good
4 seems to be over flashed with too many reflections in the black paint

Your work gets better & better. Your eye gets keener & keener. Good work Peter.

I love the aerial view of #2 Stubbsy. Nice how neat nature can be when it wants to.
Regards Colin

Very much agree with Matt. Your photos have improved out of sight in the short time you've had a camera Peter.

Probably doesn't mean much coming from a mug like me, but it has to be said.

Thank you all for your comments.

I have two things to say here:

I agree I'm (mostly) getting better and I owe it in large part to the advice and criticism I get from my fellow forum members

There is no such thing as a mug. We are all at different stages on our photographic journey and few of us will reach the end. Regardless of where we are on that path we all have insights and views of what is good, bad and indifferent and those are best shared so we all grow as a result.

Definately #2 for me :D

Peter, what is your secret in getting all these eye popping colours? Is that the lens, the D2x or your serious skills? I'm amazed at all these shots.

Your images are so "Simple"

I love them all. Are you going to make one of those momento books again?

I love No. 2 Peter. No. 1 is great but the wet patches on the path do take away from the symmetry of the composition.
