Raewyn Smith, Sunrise at Lake Matheson (PLACES WILDERNESS 2024)

Lake Matheson is in the West Coast region of the South Island of New Zealand. It takes approximately 45 minutes to walk in to capture this most amazing view. I captured this at sunrise in July 2024. The temperature was around minus 1.5 degrees and I was very out of my comfort zone.
