Travel guide of Lindis PassDriving through the Lindis Pass in New Zealand is a real treat. The hills are so beautiful,golden and tussock covered and uninhabited, with gorgeous effects of sun and weather. It’s not always easy to find a safe spot to stop for the angle you want to shoot. On this occasion there was a delay for roadworks, allowing a few seconds to grab a shot.

That water is really cold, like REALLY cold. Julia is a fantastic model and fantastic friend for doing this shoot for me. St Bathans is a stunning dark blue, lake surrounded by white cliffs, which made for a perfect spot to do a water shoot.

We came across this magnificent, quiet fishing spot while driving back from the Blue Pools. We turned in and got off our SUV, sat by the beach to bask under the evening sun. -

During the climbing up to Roys peak. This is the most known photo spot on the track. The girl on the picture is Kelsea. Thanks for being there for me :) She is a great photographer btw.

This climb to Roy’s Peak seemed like a great idea when I read the description on New Zealand’s Department of Conservation’s website. “Easy Walk”, they said. After a painstaking 3-hour climb, my feet were practically bleeding and I was quite dehydrated. The only thing I wanted to do was run back down to go back to my hotel—but not before taking some shots of the exquisite view.

Began my hike up Mt. Roy at 5.40am at temperatures of -2 degrees celsius. The terrain was easy to walk on and the exposed trek gave me full-view of the night sky - I caught five shooting stars in the short 2.5hr hike! The view atop was well-worth the effort and the cold!

While on an eight month backpacking journey, we stopped by Queenstown, New Zealand to visit a friend in Wanaka. Not knowing this was a miserable six hour hike up to Roy’s Peak, we happily agreed but were met with some of the most humbling views. Worth it in the end!

One friend of ours decided to celebrate his father’s birthday by taking him to the Roys Peak and watch the sunrise over Wanaka. We’ve got there at night, slept under the peak and in the morning continue to the highest point.

During our trip through New Zealand we found this sweet spot. All the bras are from visitors. This is a social campaign from the New Zealand Breast Cancer Foundation near Queenstown. They collect some money with a little box for donations. Greet opportunity to finance a little bit for the research to fight agains breast cancer.

This little fella flew around my camera and I for over an hour. It’s called a fantail and it’s one of New Zealand smallest bird. It’s very fast and I actually never imagined having such a good shot. Thank pal!

As we climbed through the valley, a white-turquoise river began to appear, it was obvious we were coming to a glacier, however, the real beauty hid beyond the glacier, as the rough mountains spiked through the valley almost like a non-passable gate, we knew we couldn’t go any further. New Zealand is truly amazing.

The Emyn Muil was an arc of rocky hills that ran southwest along the River Anduin, crossing it at its southern most end. It is remembered because the Ringbearer Frodo Baggins and his companion Samwise Gamgee crossed it’s razor-sharp peaks on their way to Mordor.

I’ve spent the last 10 months in New Zealand and believe me, the South Island is one of the most craziest thing you will ever see. As we were driving to Mt. Cook (highest summit in NZ) we had to drive along this more than scenic road. First you’ll drive by Lake Pukaki and his blue water coming from the glacier, then every turn, every inch of this road will make you stop and enjoy life as it is. Please, go to New Zealand, you won’t regret it.

My friend who is a Pilot for Air Safaris in my hometown, Lake Tekapo - New Zealand, asked if I wanted to join her on a flight as she had a spare seat. Of course I could not say no, as surrounding Lake Tekapo are beautiful mountains and stunning scenery!

We decided to go for a hike up the infamous Queenstown Hill Summit walk. It wasn’t easy for us beginners, but we kept on. We came to a fork in the track. The sign to the left “5 minute track” and the sign to the right “20 minute walk”. We decided to take the longer route which lead us to this dark looking forest where the sun light was kept away by the tall pine trees. We instantly felt mysterious and pulled out our cameras to capture this enchanting (some would say dead and dry) forest.

On my trip through New Zealand I met one guy how also comes from Germany and slept in the same ski lodge. He offers us to give us a free paragliding flight if we will drive his car down in the valley. Guys this was just awesome! We get to free paragliding flights (it was the first time for me) and it was just perfect. :)
