Driving around the south island of New Zealand for two weeks with mom was an unforgettable experience. As the trip was coming to a close I stopped the car near a cluster of yellow flowering bushes. With the mountain range known as the Remarkables rising in the background, I worked to get a composition that offered contrast. This view was near the city of Queenstown, New Zealand. The Remarkables are the most recognizable landmarks around the city. 181109_MAC_3384-Edit.tif
