A view from my belay stance 30 metres away from the top of Mount Brewster (2,515m). My climbing buddy Piotr, now safe on top, savoured his achievement before building an anchor to belay me up to join him. Our view was unfortunately short lived. Not long after I reached the summit the clouds engulfed us in a white out. New Zealand weather is as dramatic as the landscape - the perfect place for adventure / Lumix TZ 220, a stitch of 3 portrait shots, F8, 1/800, ISO 125, 24mm
