Dog Stream Waterfall
Lens: Tamron 17-50mm F2.8 Camera: K20D Photo Location: Hanmer Springs, New Zealand 
Posted By: FruitLooPs, 05-27-2012, 04:25 PM

I went for a bushwalk to see the Dog Stream Waterfall with my father yesterday - was pouring with rain when we arrived but thankfully it cleared just as we set out. Being in Hanmer Springs (known for thermal hotpools) we had a nice relaxing soak as well Good times.

I took my tripod with the intention of trying a spherical panoramic, but things transpired against us at the top (short on time and very high winds). I made a quick attempt but it was just too windy even with the tripod for enough keepers.

41m/135ft falls, with me and dad for perspective - worth the trip!



A rainbow or two formed after the rain and clouds cleared, made for a neat panoramic from a viewpoint partway up the trail looking back.




Hope you like, ta.
