New Zealand French Pass Road, Side
The French Pass Road is probably one of the most stunning and scenic but less known streets of the country. Dramatic rolling hills emerge down to the coasts of the sound.
Photography Tips
Here, you can get super creative. One element I used is to get the car running and letting its lights enhance the grass which you can use perfectly as a foreground. Hence, creating an absolute stunner of a color spectrum.
Travel Information
Driving here takes time. You will pass many broken passages in order to get here - traffic can be seriously slowed down due to construction. Sections of the road are gravel. If the weather is too serious, be advised that a normal car could struggle. If the weather is fine, the road is definitely doable.
