Tongariro Crossing

A couple of weeks ago I completed the Tongariro crossing.

Here is a few of the images I took, these are all HDR shots which I am having a play with lately:

View of Ruapehu from Ngauruhoe summit

Sunset sky over Tuhikaramea

View over Mt. Tongariro from Ngauruhoe summit

Ngauruhoe crater

Ngauruhoe Steam Vent

Emerald Lakes, Tongariro National Park

This trip has inspired me to save up for a carbon fibre tripod, as my Manfrotto studio tripod (~11 kgs) is not suitable for walking any more than 1km max. These shots were all done handheld, which is ok, but means a loss of sharpness.
