A Drive Through Sonora Pass

Embarking on a journey through the scenic beauty of Sonora Pass is always a breathtaking experience. Recently, I had the privilege of navigating these winding roads, and the landscape's transformation under a blanket of fresh snow was nothing short of magical.

The snow-laden trees along the highway created a winter wonderland that seemed straight out of a storybook. The crisp, cold air and the hushed stillness of the surroundings added to the enchantment. Capturing this snowy spectacle with my camera felt like freezing a moment in time. The play of sunlight on the glistening fresh snow added an ethereal quality, turning the entire landscape into a mesmerizing display of light and shadow.

I hope you enjoy these images as much as I loved capturing them. And, with this winter wonderland, I wish you very happy holidays!

Skippers Road

Skippers Road is one of the most scenic drives in the Queenstown region in New Zealand’s South Island. It is known as a filming location for several scenes in The Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit trilogies, and the river cutting through the canyon below is a popular spot for jet boating. This was a spectacular day-long drive offering photography opportunities both from the ground and from the air.
