We're going east for the next few days. Past Blenheim towards Kaikoura on Highway 1 is the salt works. This salt works produces natural sea salt in those ponds, and each pond (different stages) has different colors. Another shot.There is a new New Zealand DP from beautiful Kapiti Coast. Please have a look.
Beautiful pink pond, under this white and blue sky...
ReplyDeleteThanks for linking my blog to yours. We planning our next summer holidays at Nelson and look forward to see those photos in real life soon.
ReplyDeleteThis is a totally surreal landscape. I'm used to salt flats (salinas) here, on river estuaries, but not like this.
ReplyDeleteCome on you two, tell me you went on an excursion to Jupiter to take this:).
Wow, that doesn't even look real, more like something out of a dream. Very trippy, but very beautiful.
ReplyDeletethe sky is beautiful as everything else, hope you're enjoying your trip.
ReplyDeleteBen you've done it again, I guess you poses the superpower to conjure sky and clouds at your will :)
ReplyDeleteGreat one
the beautiful sky and the pink pond are amazing, nice photo!
ReplyDeleteThanks Pierre, I did little contrast adjustment on this picture. But… Basically colour is all natural, you would be wowed at site when you are standing front of it.
ReplyDeleteI was still on the Earth (Well, I wish I could travel that far, Mile).
No worries Shagen, you are one of now growing NZ daily Photo bloger. I must have listed you on side bar as well.
Thank you for visiting us, Victoria. It really real, I did not use any filters or colour alternation, but only the contrast.
Thanks Jazzy, Yes we did enjoy our trip. Now we are back to usual nest. I will show few more pictures from this nearby trip.
Hehe, Lanchezar, I wish I had that power, I guess I’m always lucky to find that kind of sky/cloud formation.
Thank you Lisi, The pond is the main subject on this picture but I could not resist the sky.
I just love those pinks. Enjoy the trip.
ReplyDeleteMile, with the cost of petrol, OF COURSE IT'S EARTH, (though the price went down a bit on Wednesday.) Yay.
ReplyDeleteI never seen a place like this. This pink is amazing:)
ReplyDeleteMumbai DP showed an eye-opening photo of mattress cleaning. Now i see hills of salt (am i right?) ..what a fruitful day!
ReplyDeleteThanks Nathalie. We did enjoy our short trip.
ReplyDeleteZsolt72, It's amazing and that pink is real!
Kris, yes the white hills on the back is the mountain of salt!
How interesting! The salt ponds at different stages have different colours. Wonders of nature...
ReplyDeleteThanks Keropok Man.
ReplyDeleteIt's interesting, eh?
Piika, you should come here and see it by yourself. It's not a painting or a drawing or any of those computer graphics.
ReplyDeleteIt's real. As I said, it go through post process for adjusting contrast, but that's it.
No, don't say "Yeah right."
Kind mother nature !
ReplyDeleteGreater flamingo are missing in such a landscape !0)
Flamingo! Yeah, that's right. They can hide there no problem.
ReplyDeleteAnother wonderful shot. Just ignore the non-believers. I do. However, just to be sure, I'll have to come over there to see for myself! ;-)
