The Milford Road
1/40s @ f/14, ISO 1600, Nikkor 24-70mm @ 36mm.(T&P)
This road, from Te Anau to Milford Sound, NZ, winds through deep, stony valleys where waterfalls cascade into mossy beech forests. It’s a spectacular route – 75 miles long full of hairpin turns and incredible scenery, but also has a high number of fatalities and injuries caused by head-on car crashes – most of which are caused by overseas drivers. That’s fog you see in the mountains on the right. This was taken just before the Homer Tunnel.
