New Zealand Pools Motukiekie Beach
3/4 on the way to the sea stacks of Motukiekie Beach are beautifully shaped ponds with are full of some water after the tide did go down. These offer beautiful layers to compose your frames.
Photography Tips
Try to create a leading line with the edges of the ponds. At sunset, go for a slight underexposure so you keep the highlights clean in the frame. Shadows can be recovered.
Travel Information
Motukiekie Beach is only accessible on low tide situations. The tides are quite strong here and you should take good care on your timing. There is no real parking lot along the way. However, you can find a small spot north off the beach and then make yourself a small little scramble down the rock pile.
