A roadside stop in the Lindis area, NZ. I was grateful there were not too many cars passing to see me lurking amongst the wildflowers. Canon 450D.. Your opinions/comments most welcome :)

Wonderful clarity and colours Lyn. This is not the usual landscape that we associate with NZ. This is very beautiful indeed.

Some very nice colours and textures here, Lyn. The scene has been made still better by the composition. A beautiful post!

You seem to have dry summers like we do on the west coast of the US, and some of the same or very similar wild flowers. I am enjoying this series a lot, Eve. Keep it up.

Glad you stopped to smell the flowers Lyn. A beautiful shot you have treated us to see. I wouldn't worry about the motorists, they would just think you were having an emergency.

That is beautiful. The cloudless sky works on this one because there is sufficient land with lots of colors and detail to balance it out. Keep-pah.

What a great country, sighh!
You want comments? Ok: it might have been a stunner when you got down on you knees by thos beautifull blue lower and photograph them larger than life with that great backdrop.
still: it is a very good photo as it is right now!
