NZ Landscape Photography | Milford Sound

Location: Milford Sound, New Zealand

I am always completely blown away by the grandeur and phenomenal scenery of Fiordland and this visit was no exception. I arrived at Milford Sound in the middle of the afternoon to find it wasn’t actually torrential rain as this had been the forecast. Instead I was pleased with the heavy-set cloud and thought this could work to my advantage. I set out to start shooting in the early evening and captured several different angels. However at about nine thirty pm a slight break in the clouds allowed this shaft of brilliant light to illuminate the scene and I quickly set about capturing it. Within a few seconds this light show was gone and darkness fell. I was super thrilled with this image of such an icon.
