Fine weather's, ... well, fine, I suppose, but weather like this offers more interesting opportunities for photographing. As usual, I felt hugely grateful to have such convenient access to a place like this.
The yellowish-orange plant is mountain horopito (Pseudowintera colorata), the bright green plant is haumakaroa (Raukaua simplex). Both are among the most common shrubs in this altitudinal zone.

i agree, Pete. The misty valley behind has really made your beautifully composed and focussed image stand out in a way that a bright sunny day would have missed.
you're right, rain does give opportunities...sometimes difficult to see,after day after day......
Opportunities for another magically fine and beautiful photo. It feels alive and soaring and quite mysterious. Just what I needed. Thank you for this bit of beauty. Take care.
Thanks Avus :-)
gz, I do appreciate that!
Barbara, thank you. Glad it met a need :-)
The eye is drawn into this corner of your world. As a fine and boring day could never manage.
Zhoen, it's a wonderful corner of the world.
Kia ora Pete,
Something always appeals about the thought of disappearing into the mist. I was going to head out this past week but a bout of bronchitis and the weather held me in check. Might be just as well to wait...

Kia ora Robb. Sorry to hear about the crook lungs. Make sure you've recovered fully before you test them with some hard walking.
