Western Sunset

Western Sunset from the road between Tarris and Wanaka, Central Otago, New Zealand

On our return journey from Tarris to Wanaka in Central Otago the light faded quickly but as the sun sank in the west we were presented with this lovely orange sunset over the Harris Mountains and the Southern Alps.  This type of occasion keeps us coming back to Central Otago, with its snow-capped mountains in the winter and vast dry open plains in the summer.  The dark form on the left of the image is the Pisa Range.
