New Zealand and the Color Green

Inspired by the Weekly Photo Challenge topic of the color green, I browsed through some of my old photos of New Zealand, the most beautifully green place in the world.  I edited the photos a little, brightening colors or sharpening edges, and here are some for you to enjoy.

My son Jonathan as a little Hobbit in Dart Forest

The sheep-farming hills of Fairlie

Fairlie with snow-covered mountains in the background

The blue-green water of Lake Pukake, which melts from Mount Cook’s glacier

An evergreen forest behind the autumny colors of Lake Tekapo and its church

The rocks at Banks Peninsula near Christchurch

More colors to explore on the open road
