Hi All,
I went away for the last three days to Wellington for a wedding, and took a few photos to share from FL250 on route to Wellington. I was on the red eye Qantas flight QF4172, a 737-300 service from Christchurch via Wellington to Auckland.

These are some of the shots of the top of the South Island through to Wellington for those who have maybe not yet seen it in real life from the air.

(no photos of the landing as I took a video of it)

EDIT: Link fixed, thanks Jon!

Cool snaps Alister, thanks for sharing! I have flown on a Qantas 737 from Auckland to Christchurch (and back) before and loved the rugged South Island scenery.

I was on the red eye Qantas flight QF4172

That got me confused- I thought Red Eye meant a night time flight? I was on one this Thursday coming from OOL to AKL, and had a loverly view of the Auckland and Manukau city lights out the window, yet my camera would not pick up very much light, which sucks, as it would have made for some great pictures :angry:
