Surreal scene- Lake Tekapo in the mists, New Zealand

One minute we were driving in bright sun by the beautiful lake Tekapo on the South Island. Next minute, this fog descended, giving the scenery a surreal, mysterious atmosphere. You can still see the sun struggling to pierce the murk

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a surreal scene at Lake Tekapo in New Zealand. The unpredictable weather of this beautiful country is well-known, and on this particular day in April 1983, it showcased its volatile nature. As we were driving under the bright sun, admiring the stunning lake Tekapo on the South Island, an unexpected fog suddenly descended upon us. This ethereal mist transformed the landscape into a mysterious and otherworldly sight. In this image, you can still witness the sun's valiant attempt to penetrate through the murky haze. The trees stand tall amidst the concealed morning light, creating an abstract and faded backdrop against which nature's beauty unfolds. Despite being obscured by fog, there is a serene and restful atmosphere that fills every corner of this picture. It evokes a sense of calmness and anticipation as if something magical is about to happen. The symbolism within this photograph becomes apparent as your eyes are drawn towards the promontory jutting out from shore towards the horizon. Its reflection shimmers faintly amidst the muted grey sky above it – elemental forces hidden beneath layers of misty mystery. Jon Bower skillfully captured this moment in time for Universal Images Group (UIG), showcasing not only New Zealand's breathtaking scenery but also its ever-changing weather patterns. This print serves as a reminder that even when faced with unexpected challenges like sudden foggy mists, beauty can still be found in unexpected places.
