Where Mountains Meet the Sea
Seven field images from a landscape built vertically: cliffs, cloud, glacial water, and light.
The vertical cliffs rise dramatically from the dark waters, creating nature's perfect cathedral in Milford Sound.
Mist-shrouded peaks reveal themselves momentarily, like ancient guardians of this sacred place.
Medical Team—Dr. Ralph, Sarah, Jan, and Ed—stand before waterfalls cascading from impossible heights, born of rain and glacial melt that has shaped this land for millennia.
My attitude determines my altitude. Off to the breathtaking, green, and clean Milford Sound—watch out for FOD; take that hat off.
Mirror-like waters reflect the majesty above, doubling the wonder that Kipling so rightly celebrated.
The untamed wilderness of Fiordland manifests its purest form here, where the earth seems to open and embrace the sea.
