Serenity

On January 1, 2015February 24, 2015 By Mike StrachanIn Daily Post, Photography

In response to The Daily Post’s weekly photo challenge: “Serenity.”

From my trip to New Zealand a while ago, this is my ‘go to’ photo when I need something calming. I’ve made it my desktop photo at work and it always makes me feel at peace.

  So you haven’t made it down there yet? It’s absolutely gorgeous! Every corner we’d drive around, it felt like a whole new landscape 🙂

Beautiful shot! I love the ripples across the water and those jutting mountains.

Great landscape, reminds me of Norway, which also has a fjord like landscape….I’ll have to visit New Zealand one day.
