Early Morning Snow - taken on
the morning of the 14the June this year at about 7.45am. It
was taken looking up Lake Ohau with snow falling and a
brooding sky overhead. The air temperature was about
1C.
Fire In The Sky - taken on
the morning of the 23rd June this year at about 7.50am. The
view is of Lake Ohau with the Ben Ohau mountain range
behind. We only see skies such as this at certain times of
the year, and the colours only last for a few minutes. You
need to be up early, and have your camera readied should a
sky such as this appear at short notice.
