Canterbury - New Zealand

Canterbury Province is situated on New Zealand's South Island and contains a wide range of landscapes from the flat farmland and braided rivers of the Canterbury Plains, the extinct volcanoes of Banks Peninsula, glaciated lakes, river valleys and mountains of the Southern Alps and brackish coastal Lake Ellesmere. I'm lucky to live here!

A picture postcard collection! I had no idea there were so many pretty places around that flat agricultural plain which never greatly appealed.
