By the river

Another South Island image. I love lupins and this one looked pretty with the river as a backdrop.

Very pretty! I love the water as a background.

Lupin remained unaffected by wind to be the good subject in this water scene!

[Margaret Brown]

This is beautiful. I love lupins as well but they weren't out when we were down there.

[Delwyn Barnett]

The river does give this a lovely soft and interesting background.

Fabulous shot love the two tones of blue

[Chris Johnson]

The background looks so cool! Awesome composition!

[Marnie]

Love this one, so good against that background. We were lucky enough to be in the SI on a golf trip some years ago when the lupins were in full flower. Absolutely lovely, we were all entranced.

I'm glad you are keeping on showing us more of your South Island shots. I like the juxtaposition of a pretty flower against the larger and more powerful element of nature - the stream.
