Just got back from NZ and thought I'd a pic with you all. It was taken in a forest area just outside of Roturua. Would love some feedback... good or bad :D

G'day,
Really unusual and very eye catching, looking forward to going over to NZ myself in Jan, doing the Routeburn and Milford Sound Treks... Must have caught me in a weak/drunken moment to go on a >100km bush-walk :shock:

Maybe I'd try blurring the background to make the subject stand out more? Hmmm, wonder about a slight de-sat on the background too... Dunno... Just ideas... :)

Not bad, not good, simply great! :D I love the shape and colour mix and this picture reveals your ability to see a great shot opportunity where most people would just walk-by.

Thanks for the input everyone. Very much appreciated! :)
Mudder: You'll love the Milford Sound trek. It was something that I always wanted to do and I'm sure you'll get some amazing photo op's! Jan is the perfect time to go too... except watch out for the midgy's (not sure of spelling). Really anoying little fly thingy's.
