Lake Tarawera III

Posted by Margie (Auckland, New Zealand) on 1 October 2008 in Landscape & Rural and Portfolio.

Mt Tarawera (which blew its top spectacularly in 1886) is hiding behind the clouds.

I'm a beginner at this photography thing. Any hints, tips, constructive criticism or comments are welcome and appreciated.
