Hi guys, haven't posted here for a while...

Have been desperately trying to shake my gear lust, and even went to the extreme of using the 'old' D80 to take some photographs :)

Here are a couple of highlights from 3 weeks of beauty in New Zealand's incomparable South Island:

All shot D80 NEF and developed in Capture One Pro / CS3.
