Description
This is my favorite coast-line in the world - the West Coast of the South Island of New Zealand. This was taken in 2002 on a rare sunny day in winter. This part of New Zealand has the highest rainfall of the country, because the prevailing winds off the Tasman Sea, hit the Southern Alps, a mountain range near the coast, resulting in a lot of rain which has created the unique rain-forest climate in the area.
