All we saw of Milford Sound

The weather was so bad the day we took a boat through Milford Sound that this is literally all we saw of the famous fjord. The water was rough, too, so the boat was tossing and turning the entire trip.

Milford Sound is a fjord in the southwest of New Zealand's South Island. It was judged the world's top travel destination in an international survey (the 2008 Travelers' Choice Destinations Awards by TripAdvisor) and is acclaimed as New Zealand's most famous tourist destination. (from Wikipedia)

Too bad it wasn't a nicer day but you managed a pretty cool shot that gives the viewer a feel of what it was like to be there. Love those waterfalls on the left. V

Still a cool time to be there, despite the rough water. Reminds me of the Maid of the Mist below Niagara Falls.
Nick Paoni18-Mar-2024 22:12
It still seems quite beautiful in a rugged sort of way.

When I went there (many years ago) it was a drought - it hadn't rained for three days and the ferns were wilting.
