Hi,
My name is Mary and many years ago I did a lot of walking, and tramping. Then for approx. 20 years I have been unwell. Now I am getting my health back, and, slowly but surely, getting back into it. In the past I did walking and tramping in Mt. Cook area, Wellington, Queenstown, and other areas. It is one of the 'loves' of my life, and it's so great to feel 'well again' to be able to do it again. My first love is 'nature photography' - lakes, mountains, flora, birds, animals, tracks, views, etc. Anything to do with nature. I am married with a grown up son. We have a fox terrier who comes on the smaller walks with me. We live close to the lake front and so have some nice walks down there. I love feeding the ducks, seagulls etc. I get a lot of enjoyment out of that. And also getting 'action shots' of them. Lately I have done Queenstown Hill, Kelvin Heights Walkway, Sunshine Bay Walkway. Like I said, I'm only just starting again, after a very long time. It's so wonderful to get back out in the 'big outdoors'. Hopefully you will like my "Bagging Queenstown Hill" with photos when I send it in. Mary J., Queenstown, N.Z.
