It’s always worth looking away from the obvious beauty. Something I’ve learned as a photographer is to keep an eye open for not the obvious photograph. Seeing a group of photographers all pointing their cameras in the same direction – I’m more likely to look what is behind them. Driving along the Ara-Tapu ring road around Rarotonga its tempting to always look out to the water of the lagoon that surrounds the island. But there is fabulous landscapes and amazing greenery inland. This landscape is in the Ngatangiia District on the east side of the island. I don’t know the name of the mountain on the left of the photograph. If you look closely on the right under the huge palm trees you might be able to spot a cow.
Taking only photographs – leaving only footprints
