in photos: 50 Shades of green in New Zealand

After over a month in Australia and driving from Brisbane to Melbourne, with lengthy stays along the way, I thought I'd seen all the different shades of green that the world had to offer.

But then I touched down in New Zealand. 

A week exploring the South Island by campervan, driving and occasionally walking through some of the wildest terrain I've ever seen means I must back track on this statement and acknowledge that the myriad shades of green which NZ offers up is like no other.

Here are some of my photos of the green I've seen and the other colours that pop through here and there.
(Bonus points for those of you who can spot where in beautiful New Zealand these were taken.)
