Milford Sound is a prized scenic spot of New Zealand. We often see the fjord with its perfect mirror surface water surrounded by soaring peaks, a kind of idyllic scenery. It was not like that when we arrived. We had battering gale and hard rains of the Southern ocean. The captain closed all the exits to the decks. I took these photos by stealth, unsheltered from the heavy rain and the gale force winds, but surrounded by numerous narrow strings of waterfalls with the occasional tumbling powerful waterfalls from the sky. Milford Sound was more like a wild and forbidding water under1world than the peaceful heavenly landscape. The quality of the photos are wild but never delicate.

32. Verse by Kai Lui.
Toronto. 2017.
Love taller than the mountain awe
Passion longer than the eternal falls
Let the gentle rain washes the heartache away
Enchanted hypnotic gaze, intoxicated by Fate.
Grey sky and rushing water in astray
Torrent rain touches the scar in my way
Leaving is hard but staying is no way
Stunt with emotion, embraced by the place
