Being there, not just Fiorland, but New Zealand, that’s been my dream for such a long time! And I’m still willig to get there, somehow! 🙂
it is a beautiful country – you will love it!
superb place…like it very much…
Beautiful!
thank you! 🙂
There’s a desolate beauty about that view
i used to live and work in at Milford Sound, a very special place in NZ. It has to be on everyone’s bucket list….
How cool for you to spend so much time there, it is one of the most beautiful places I’ve seen. Did you ever run across a guide named Wattsie? he was the guide who stopped the bus so we could enjoy this view
no, didn’t meet Wattsie. Which company were you with? there are a few that do the runs in there. what was your most enjoyable spot? did you see any wildlife?
It is a magical place. imagine cycling there 🙂
This is magnificent. And I would love to see more pictures from you.
I agree these pictures are amazing
I have always wanted to go to South Island yet haven’t the time and opportunity!! Really gotta make that dream come true one day!!
superb place. it’s like dreaming.
Beautiful!
This photo is simply stunning! More like it please 🙂
i agree
Amazing shot…. there’s something mystifying about snow capped mountains…
Reblogged this on travelwyse.
stunning photo!
Nice park and photo also….
I agree!
WOW! I wish our bus drivers get to travel in 50 countries like your countrymen…most likely, they wouldn’t miss out on this part of the world on your photo!!! :))
I have been trying for the past five minutes to find the right adjective for this photo…. it’s beyond words!
thank you ! 🙂
Stunning image! You have further inspired me to visit New Zealand one day! . . . Thank you for sharing!

I’m from Florida which is flat and recently moved to Indianapolis. I have never seen real mountains. This photo is gorgeous!

This pic reminds of the phrase from the song “Turn the page”
Here i am, on the ROAD again.
There i am, up on the hills
Here i goooo, playing in the nature again
There i go, Turn the page
these mountains are… intimidating! Takes your breath away even through pictures…
Yes, those mountains are breathtaking!

This photo is amazing! I also really like the one in Notre Dame Cathedral, Mekong River, I could go on. Your pictures are more than beautiful, you actually capture the breath and essence of what you are photographing.
Namaste and many blessings***
wow thanks a lot! Namaste to you too 🙂
Mountains like these are inspiring. These are the types where Old Testament prophets would go to commune with deity.
WOW! What an amazing view and photograph!! I live for a view like that!
We took a flight from queenstown into milford sound. Looks like a beautiful drive though. Check out my NZ posts/reviews if you ever get a chance. 🙂
great posts!
NZ and Milford Sound is so beautiful. But so is Scandinavia, :).
Scandinavia kicks ass 😀
Amen! 🙂
I agree to that!
Great mountain shot. Thanks for sharing. Connie

Stunning! Went there in my early teens, too young to really appreciate it probably.
Great photo! Be sure to get plenty of Milford Sound, it’s one of the most beautiful places in the world… very sad I never got a chance to go there whilst I lived in the north island of NZ.
Great post,
Thank you for sharing ,

We just got back from a hike through the national park to Milford Sound. It was amazingly beautiful. Nice shot of the dichotomy of forest and ice. If you’re interested, check out my pictures from NZ….
wow I would love to hike there – I did the overnight boat cruise. I’ll check your photos now!
I thought I recognised those fiords! Beautiful photo and it brings me back to our honeymoon in Oz/NZ last December. I’m a bit embarrassed to share mine with a professional photographer, but here are some of my own travel photos from NZ: http://catastrophicfindings.wordpress.com/2012/01/23/new-zealand-in-pictures/
thanks for stopping by and sharing your photos! I especially love the pictures of Moreaki Boulders and Lake Matheson – beautiful!
Aha… that is a beautiful picture, I like it!
Beautiful! I’ve always wanted to go to New Zealand!
What an amazing scenery! Seemed to enjoy it straight away
Reblogged this on lutfienterprises.
low and high..!!!
hey i was there too this summer …. i too have many pictures at the same spot!!!
are your photos online?
on facebook 😦
wonderful……………………..!!!
I love, love, love New Zealand! Been lucky enough to visit it four times. The road to Milford Sound in Fiordland National Park has some of the most spectacular scenery in the world. Beautiful picture! Cheers!
wow – 4 times, I’m jealous! my friends are going there next year, do you have any recommendations?
Hi Bridget. For next year, my suggestion is to visit those places you haven’t gone before and if there is spare time, revisit those places you love. Doubtful Sound is another place in Fiordland National Park to visit where there is less people and waterfall but the solitude is golden. Try water rafting nearby Queenstown and Rotorua or kayaking in Fiordland National Park, Nelson, Picton and in North Island – Coromandel or Hahei. If you haven’t been there yet, try Mt Cook National Park, Lake Tekapo and Wanaka in South Island. I have a list of NZ articles and links if you need information and views of first hand account. Till then, have fun travelling and photographing!
That place looks amazing.
nice picture !!! 🙂
Fiordland is one of the most beautiful places on Earth, I concur. I was there 7 years ago and can still relive the entire trip like it was yesterday. Great capture
I agree! 🙂 thanks for stopping by

As if I needed any more incentive to want to visit New Zealand! Is it really as beautiful as they say and it seems??
you should visit! They say it is beautiful any time of the year – even if it is raining, it means there are waterfalls all around Milford Sound. Enjoy your trip! 🙂
Looks good, but how was the rest of the park?
it was great – Milford Sound is stunning!
Stunning…wild remote places are amazing!
