Description Roy's Peak
Wanaka Area

The walk up to Mount Roy from Lake Wanaka takes you more than 1km straight up along a 4WD track initially, then a steep and narrow ridgeline. The weather was very kind that evening for the walk down after dusk but well worth the view, the blisters and the takeout dinner afterward ! Lake Wanaka meanders off into the distance framed by the town of Wanaka on the right and Mount Aspiring National Park on the left. One of many memorable moments from our now distaant trip to New Zealand in May.

The video of our trip at a dizzying pace here:

andyhutchinson [2012-09-09 23:20:27 +0000 UTC]

One of my favourites by you I think. How do you avoid fringing in between contrasting layer masks, Dylan? Very small brushes or smooth graduated fills?

Dee-T In reply to andyhutchinson [2012-09-10 09:21:39 +0000 UTC]

andy, mainly small brushes at very low opacity and using luminosity masks so the feathering is done for me! - I rarely use things like lassoo tools for creating masks these days
