New Zealand Thunder Creek Falls
Another beautiful waterfall along Highway 6 before Haast pass. It also provides a fun spot to superimpose a person standing under the falls with the water seeming to enter their mouth.
Photography Tips
Come early to avoid the crowds, bring a polarizer filter to saturate the colors, and slow the shutter speed.
Travel Information
Well sign-posted on the south side of the road with adequate parking. There is a short walk to the river and a viewing platform but the best shots are lower on the riverbank which is easily accessible. I think a better shot may be further downstream where the stream enters the main river but would require lower water in the river to safely approach.
