I am hoping Tick will enjoy this :) . . . MILLBROOK RESORT, Central Otago, New Zealand, which covers 500 acres. This is a glimpse of the 18-hole, par 72 championship course (designed by golfer, Sir Bob Charles) I do not play golf but was quite content to sit on the patio with this view, listening to the click of clubs. Out of my bin, shot with 2MP Kodak LS420.. Hope you enjoy, your comments are welcome.

Just goes to show, it's not the camera, but the one behind it that has the talent. A great shot, Eve!

This is lovely Lyn. Those orange berries really make this capture along with the framing too. Well done!

Lovely idyllic place to play golf. The tree with the berries looks like a mountain ash.

Beautiful use of the surrounding shrubs and tree for a frame and all the colors make for a beautiful image against the white of the frame.

I was once told that Golf got its name because all the other four-letter words were taken. I just have two four-letter words for this image: Nice Work.

You made a golf course look interesting! That's no mean feat. Great use of the berries as a frame, helps add a splash of red to an otherwise restrained colour palette.

Nice framing using the shrubs Lyn and I think Tick is going to love this. Maybe the saturation is a little bit strong, but it is a great view over the golf course and to the landscape beyond.

Breathtaking view ... I love the natural framing with the trees as well as your choice. I can see this hanging on my wall. Beautifully captured Eve. Faves!

Lyn, I'm sorry I was so late in commenting but I played in a two day golf tournament this weekend. My golf in no way compares to this wonderful shot. It is beautiful and of course I faved it. Thanks. I like Sir Bob Charles as well. He is one of the best lefthanded golfers ever. Save me a tee time.
