Fractured Reality

The scenery on the drive from Dunedin to Tekapo is stunning. Taken in the context of New Zealand as a whole, this is perhaps not saying quite as much - it seems that everywhere in that country is at least stunning - but this road runs passed some of South Island's glacial lakes, including Pukaki, the much smaller but no less vivid Ruataniwha, and finally Tekapo itself, which for some forgotten reason I have very little photographic evidence of. The image above is another Photomatix-assisted edit, but the original still shows the distinctive turquoise colour caused by glacial erosion.
