Rakaia Meadows
A place I’d investigated via Google Maps before coming to New Zealand as a potential photography subject
Amazing turquoise waters, white riverbeds surrounded by lush fields and farmlands. 100% overcast skies acting like a huge softbox in the sky for a shadowless less contrasty view. You can see down into the gorge at the bright blue waters as you’re driving along the river
Sheer chance that it only stopped raining for just long enough to grab a few shots
