A relatively tiring climb up The Remarkables leads one to Lake Alta; a 500m by 250m body of water nestled between the peaks of The Remarkables. Unfortunately, the scene was rather barren due to low-lying mist which covered the peaks surrounding the lake and therefore made it rather unphotogenic.
A short climb away, however, was a rather more inviting scene.
Here, I've captured the last glimpses of sunlight as our star settles in for the evening whilst loose moraine and beautiful tussock covers the exposed rockface.
Fingers numb, upper lip frozen, intense shivering, the surrounding red and grey -- it made me think of what sunset would be like on Mars.

Thanks for letting me know. In general, I urge that you ask permission in advance. All my work is implicitly copyright. I don't want to resort to putting borders and watermarks on my landscape images. This is the reason why the images are presented in 800x533 format.
In almost all cases, if you ask to use my work, I say yes. But, I just like to know.
Cheers, and, I hope that didn't come across too harsh -- wasn't meant to.
