New Zealand - Photo From Space
Photograph from the moon?
No, actually its two natural geysers shooting off in the Te Whakarewarewa Thermal Valley, part of Te Puia Cultural Center complex in Rotorua, New Zealand. The colors in this photo have not been altered or enhanced in Photoshop, this is an all natural night shot, made with a Canon Digital Rebel XTi (EOS 400D) with a EF 17-40mm lens at f/4, 1/10. The lighting effect comes from a normal bank of spotlights, which are reflecting off cascading water that is running down the rocks (the rocks are covered in colorful mineral sediment and algae that has built up over the years). Photographed October 19, 2009. Rotorua, New Zealand. Read, listen, watch and come along on my trip around-the-world on my travelogue at www.noboundaries.org
