Weathering

On a nearly fine day in early June, I spent 2.5hours walking a meandering loop around an area of the Denniston Plateau, near my current home in Buller, NZ. I have visited the area previously, its broken land forms and industrial remnants offer interesting material for the camera. I was specifically looking for a water fall I'd photographed from a distance, on a rainy afternoon. I decided not to take the most direct route, instead spend some time looking at other aspects of the land on my way there. The waterfall, once found was an anticlimax. It proved to be highly ephemeral, and the distant view, which suggested a decent drop was a trick of perspective in an unfamiliar landscape.
Despite the lack of spectacle offered by the waterfall, the walk was good, the quality of light was good, and the terrain interesting. The more distant areas of the plateau await more meadering.
