And the winner is....... Cloudy Bay Perfection (StepByStep).

A very difficult casting vote in this case, but well done to all the entries. A very high standard, as usual.

Hey well done Dan. A lovely, lovely pic.

You pipped me by a casting vote! Just as well I didn't ask you to send in a vote for mine!! (Not that I would, of course Mods :oops: ) It seems only right that it should go to a local shot, and not one from that fangled New Zealand place!

cheers

Oh Peter I feel guilty, I get annoyed at people entering photos that aren't from real bushwalks, as many would know Cloudy Bay Lagoon is a short stroll from the road :oops: I bet you at least worked up a sweat!!!
Such a nice evocative shot too Peter, no wonder those Kiwi's are so cocky! Better luck next month.... :)

No worries Dan - don't feel guilty. Just between you and me :wink: I only had to walk 100m or so from the bach we were staying at to take my photo. We'd done the sweaty stuff to get the "Harrier over Hawea" pic (my "landscapey" non-landscape photo this month).

cheers
