It's because the puppy in the clouds.

Looks like a fantasy world. Beautiful

Yeah I agree with that. I felt I was getting a full trip. Especially loved the coastal dynamic the further south I went into Milford sound.

From nature perspective, South island is like a scaled down version of entire euro continents, Alps, Forrest, lakes, beaches everything

Sure it'd have been even more beautiful had it been taken in early morning or sunset

Thank god I wasn't the only one

I went here last month for a day, really an amazing place that's almost picturesque wherever you go in Sedona.

If you ever go again I recommend Boynton canyon with that massive cave everyone takes a picture of! The path isn't really marked well so looking it up online helps.

I love nature

Southern hemisphere person here... Sadness. We're going into autumn.

Beautiful

Right? Its literally the second view point area after you enter the park. Less common would be going around to the other side by the boat launch.

I'll upvote that!

Yes, China is a magical place full of infinite vitality and possibilities.

Obviously an old photo since it lacks a ton of snow.

Yeah the weather was very dynamic there. From sea to mountain top. Very beautiful in various ways.

Thanks! welcome to play.

Those aren't redwoods. Redwood bark is red and very soft, with sinewy/threadlike texture on the outside - not this chunky brown scaly looking bark. Also they are more tapered with a wider base, and typically don't have the moss hanging from low branches (or have low branches) like this photo.

There are a number of forests that look like this photo in northern California, and they're beautiful, but those aren't redwoods.

Source: grew up with redwoods on my property, googled to double check I wasn't misremembering.

Wow it's like an arrow pointing to the mountains! Love it.

Looks like a world of Warcraft zone art shot

Sometimes pictures of the land in China makes me understand why they are so spiritual.

Most of California is getting a snowstorm this week, including Redwood NP, so idk what OP is talking about.

Wizard island is a great name for this.

This is a beautiful picture. I think I'm becoming a nature snob. I get a beautiful mountain range, and I can't help but also think, "Ugh, clouds"!

Nikon d750 with 600mm. I was told this was near or is Fox glacier. Photo taken from the beach on the west coast facing East towards the glacier.
