Trapped on water, now trapped on land.
From one freedom restricting form of traveling to
another, we got off the boat at Dunedin and onto
a train up through the mountains. While it wasn’t
an ideal way of travelling around, most of these
valleys can’t be accessed any other way except
for the train. The views were spectacular and the
weather was grim (perfect).
The best access for photos was between the
carriages for a completely unblocked view. It’s not
all great news because with unblocked views comes
exposure to the rain and cold. I’d still recommend
braving through it though because guess who got
all the banging photos while everyone was inside
nice and warm? Just learn from my mistakes and
wear extra warm clothes.
Despite the depiction in my photos, overcast days
produce such rich and luscious colours in the
environment, making it my favorite time to take
photos. Having these rich colours and even lighting
is the easiest to edit during post-production.
