2008 2/12 NZ, Hawkes Bay - Shine Falls Walk

New Zealand has so many waterfalls - you may have to take a hike to see them, but they are really special and well worth the effort. Along the way we've seen amazing plants found nowhere else in the world. Gigantic tree ferns - here's a shot of a new frawn beginning to open. In a few days it will be a lovely branch of a fern tree!

This is a shot of the hills in the distance on our way to Shine Falls. The area is in drought and could use some rain - but it is still beautiful even in these dry conditions.
