Looking for the smaller things

After some excursions of the geological features of Rotorua and some dives into the Maori culture, we continue northbound on NZNI.

At Te Werati I did NOT spot the proposed radar station, but an impressive change from forested hills to the lowlands.

Small things part 1: Near Matamata should be the remainders of the Hobbiton movie set. Obviously too small to be seen from above.

Small things part 2: A lovely collection of balloons!

I find the representation of the flat land quite impressive as well.

Wonderful flight and images Gerold. I enjoyed this excursion much! The images are indeed showing off some great scenery, and I think your water colors look great, especially in that approach shot. :)

Thank you very much, Landon. The New Zealand scenery by Orbx is a true showcase of what FSX/P3D can achieve - and a pleasure to visit. I like it just to fly there and don´t have to fiddle around with my sim.

Beautiful shots Gerold. If you don't get this it indicates "I've done a Wayne" which it'll be known from now on ;)

Cheers

Thank you Wayne. You´ve added a delayed notification, which just makes me smile later & once more!

Nice idea, Graeme. The only problem is that only the posting one can find out if this "Wayne" was done - or if it was just unawareness...

Whatever: Thanks for commenting & enriching our language!
