To all of you who wished me Happy Birthday - a big thank you. I had a super day - this is one of the places I visited. Lake Pukaki in the Mackenzie District of Canterbury, NZ. . .Thanks for viewing, comments are welcome. I took this with the Canon 450D, I have not come to grips with it yet and am having a lot of failures, I may be calling for help.:)

Come, my friends,
'tis not too late to seek a new world. Push off, and sitting well in order smite the sounding furrows; for my purpose holds to sail beyond the sunset, and the baths of all western stars, until I die.
Tennyson, "Ulysses"
From the looks of things, you're doing just fine. :o)
I like the depth of the scene here, and the cold ice-blues throughout. Perhaps a tad of oversharpening, noticeable a bit in the foreground. Anytime you'd like feel free to ask for help. I'm sure most members would be as willing as I am to be of assistance.
Happy Birthday again, Lyn. (does this mean I'll see more of Lake Pukaki because I said it again? :P)

Please, even if you don't visit my gallery, check out my "Faves".I've left them intact since day "1", and would like it if every image there got the attention they deserved.
Breathtaking Image Lyn.
Thanks for sharing the Beauty.

Ribbit ! Come on over to my Pad.
A belated Happy Birthday, Lyn and all the best for the coming year. The almost turquoise water and the active sky make this a beautiful image.

Well, looks like you're having a lot of success with it, too! This is amazing with the water and mountains. And Happy Birthday! It's still your birthday here! You must celebrate one day for each year - and they don't have to be consecutive days. I'm glad you got a good start on that!

Life isn't about the number of breaths you take, it's about the moments that take your breath away.
Happy Birthday, Lyn . Well this certainly isn't a failure. I love the almost washed out look to the colours.
I know what you mean about stepping up to the new camera. it was all so relatively easy with my Fuji F31 ,I just pointed a clicked and maybe tinkered with the settings a bit but now with the Nikon D60 I have to think so much about each shot!

Lovely thank you card, and you're welcome. I'm glad to see you had a great day and that you shared some of it with us. Wonderful work with your new camera!

We don’t make art to show someone what something looks like. All this requires is eyes (or a lens). Art is supposed to have meaning, emotion, power, or magic. Alan & Mario "FourThirds"
There's that magical name again, Canterbury! Whenever I am near or in a Canterbury, wonderful vistas unfold. This is so lovely and the colors are wonderful, the whites and the light blue of the sea. A great shot, Eve, and I don't think any of us hasn't had to mount the learning curve involved when first using a DSLR, but I think you're doing just great! Technical questions are always welcomed and if we can't give an answer, we'll help you look for one! :)

No trees were killed in the sending of this message. However, a large number of electrons were terribly inconvenienced.
Beautiful work. Contrasts are wonderful. Idyllic location.

I like the land vs. water workin' here!! Neat breaks / points in the land with dy-no-mite details way out!! Terrifical tones of the water too!!

Why do the pictures come out square when the lens is round??
Wow, you've been practicing. I love this one. The colors are wonderful.

Beautiful landscape... the composition, color and DOF all excellent. Especially that late winter color.

Much of the beauty in life is found in people who care.
What a different atmosphere portrayed in this., especially the "peek-a-boo" detail in the background. Keeper.

I missed your birthday as I was away LE, so belated happy returns! 21 again eh? I like this shot a lot, with the cool blue and snaking shoreline. You have propelled New Zealand right up my list of places to visit with your wonderful photos!
