Walking the Routeburn

Daily Photo – Walking the Routeburn

A few years ago, I hiked the Routeburn track here on the South Island. It’s an epic trail but I didn’t release many images from that trip yet. So, let’s spend a few days fixing that. here’s a lovely stream from along the way. Nothing fancy, just lovely.

Hiking the Routeburn Track

Daily Photo – Hiking the Routeburn Track

On the middle day of the hike, the fog rolled in for the entire day so it was extra moody. I didn’t mind at all because it just makes for a different kind of photo. I felt like I was in the Scottish Highlands, even though I’ve never actually been to the Scottish Highlands! That’ll be fixed soon though!

The Routeburn by Pixel

Daily Photo – The Routeburn by Pixel

Looking forward to the new Google Pixel 6 arriving in the coming days… It’ll be interesting to see how the camera is on this generation. The past models have often been class leading. In fact, they have been so good that as well as sharing a bunch of images on here from each phone, an image from one of them has even made it into my Fine Art collection! Anyway, here is a pic from a misty hike along the Routeburn track last year, taken with the Pixel 4.

The Routeburn with the Google Pixel phone

Daily Photo – The Routeburn with the Google Pixel phone

Man, I was just looking at the metadata for this one to see where I took it exactly, and I realized it was with the Google Pixel 4 phone. Quite impressive, I must say. I could tell it was a little different because when I opened up the little “i” on SmugMug (you can do this too), I saw a little map of where I took the photo.

The Beginning of the Routeburn

Daily Photo – The Beginning of the Routeburn

This is one of the most famous great walks in New Zealand. It’s about a 2 or 3 night hike and it goes around some of the most beautiful mountains in the southern alps. I think one of the best shots was right here in the beginning.

Waterfall Along the Routeburn

Daily Photo – Waterfall Along the Routeburn

I think we passed this on the very first day of the Routeburn track along the South Island of New Zealand. I had a feeling we’d pass a few waterfalls, but I didn’t expect anything quite this majestic. It was one of those cool waterfalls where basically everyone gets soaking wet while passing underneath… which was a really nice break after a rather sweaty ascent.
