Last light on the Franz Josef Glacier, South island, New Zealand

            This area often has bad weather and I had only a short period here (like 1 day), weather was miserably all day, but suddenly cleared up in the evening. Weather forecast couldn't tell that! I went for a long walk to the glacier, but didn't go closer than this since it was getting dark. 

Wiki:
The Franz Josef (Ka Roimata o Hinehukatere in Māori) is a 12 km (7.5 mi) long glacier located in Westland Tai Poutini National Park on the West Coast of New Zealand's South Island. Together with the Fox Glacier 20 km (12 mi) to the south, and a third glacier, it descends from the Southern Alps to less than 300 metres (980 ft) above sea level.

The area surrounding the two glaciers is part of Te Wahipounamu, a World Heritage Site park. The river emerging from the glacier terminal of Franz Josef is known as the Waiho River.
