  1. By popular(ish) request, here are a few more random photos. Mostly quite pretty ones, which might even be suitable as wallpaper, or perhaps for Doom skies, etc. They are in chronological order.

      Thanks! I'm now using the Milford Sound and Mitre Peak photo as my desktop background. :-)

      Yes, that's one of the classic NZ shots. You won't find many New Zealand travel brochures or guide books that don't have an image like that somewhere in them.

      BTW, I posted some earlier (and better) Greenland shots here. A lot clearer, but on the other hand less dramatic colours.

      That Afghanistan photo is MY desktop background. It's as beautiful as Quake.
