Dance of Clouds

An amazing vista that opens up whilst going from Te Anau Downs to Milford Sound, before Lake Gunn. I love the beautiful sunny day with a chill in the air and the fleeting clouds near the mountains which feels like they are playing a hide and seek game - whether to show you the mountains or hide them from view?

Twilight on Te Anau Lake

noreply@blogger.com (PradoV) — Wed, 25 Jun 2025 06:55:00 +0000

This is one of my personal favorites, as I headed out to Te Anau lake just after dawn waiting for the sunrise to capture some fascinating twilight sceneries. Personally, love the purple colors that are afforded in the cooler months and to top it, the capture of star bursts in every streetlight in the scene and the beautiful light streak of a passing by car. Do you like it as well?

Sydney Light Trails at "The Rocks", below Harbour Bridge

noreply@blogger.com (PradoV) — Mon, 06 May 2019 11:07:00 +0000

Sydney Light Trails at "The Rocks", below Harbour Bridge

One of my favourites, this one. Captured just below the harbour bridge at "The Rocks", Sydney.

I like the ambience accentuated by the street lamps and the distant lights of a high rise in the background. One of the beams of the harbour bridge can actually be seen in the foreground to the left, giving it the rustic feel of industrial era structure. All in all, I think it is a classic combination of old meets the new.
