Old Sluicings Hut, Nevis (IV)

I didn't know what I was going to shoot on my drive through the Te Papapuni Nevis Valley SE of Queenstown, but I knew with the light & super drive track (it's impenetrable most of the year for anything not a 4x4 ute), I was going to get something.

I normally don't use a polarising filter when shooting subjects without water, but the sky this day has the most epic cirrus high clouds that I wanted the definition to come through. This bought out contrast & richness in the tussock grasslands.

Anyways halfway up or down the valley there's a collection of mountain huts, some of which date back to old gold mining days, which are now used for tramping, hunting etc. They were an unexpected treat & wouldn't have been half as fabulous without the light. I spent way too long exploring compositions of these huts, but it was so worth it.
