Sometimes you get lucky by being in the right place, right time – and have a camera at your side.
In New Zealand earlier this year,I snapped this image overlooking Lake Wakatipu.
The view is towards the tiny hamlet of Glenorchy, location for much of the filming for the Lord of the Rings and Hobbit movies.
A lot of people have said “great shot”… and then I came across the Sony World Photography awards, which has a Panorama section.
I’ve entered the pic in the awards, which are judged early next year.
No tricks with this one – it was my trusty Pentax J1’s “auto setting”
Will I win? Who knows, there are thousands of entries. But I think Mother Nature put on quite a show, don’t you agree?
