Lake Ohau & Glen Mary - taken
looking up the road towards the Lake Ohau Ski Lodge from the
north edge of the village. It was a calm evening with a
almost matte finish to the surface of the lake. The mountain
in the centre is Glen Mary which stands about 3200 metres
high. It was taken on the 19th June
Wildfowl on Lake Middleton -
also taken in the evening on the 19th June. It shows black
swans, Canada geese, and ducks enjoying the quietness of the
Lake Middleton. The lake is often frozen over during the
winter months. Sometimes enough to ice skate
on..
