That Wanaka Tree

January - Himal

A tree growing out of a lake with mountains in the distance and a long in the foreground on the shore
"That Wanaka Tree" is something I stumbled on accidentally by Lake Wanaka in New Zealand's South Island. A lonesome tree growing up out of the lake with mountains in the background. Unknown to me, it's very popular with tourists, being marked in Google Maps and even having its own Wikipedia page. There were at least 50 people crowding around in groups, taking selfies. I had lined up this shot and had to wait patiently, in the end just pleading with one group to move aside for 5 seconds. Happy with the results.
