Well I'm on the downhill run. These are some samples form the shots I took along the West Coast of the South Island of NZ in February. Sadly the weather at the glaciers was crap so nothing spectacular there. You can find more images from the West Coast leg of the trip HERE

This first image is of the top of the glacier - taken with the 70-200 VR lens

These glaciers are HUGE. To get an idea of the scale - the image linked HERE is a detail from the lower right corner of this image showing where there is a group of people on the glacier.

It was drizzling and overcast all day on the leg from Franz Josef to Queenstown (at just on 400K it was the longest driving day of our trip), but I think the weather actually adds to this shot

Your processing on these images is immaculate! They are masterful. You have wrung every ounce of quality out of the D2X/lens combination and it shows. Go to the front of the class. :D

Thank you all for the comments - New Zealand is a dream location for photography.
