These three photos were taken from Moa Flat, same location as the photos in my last post Moa Flat in Winter. This time Nigel is facing west to the Umbrella Mountains. I asked him to take photos as the snow patterns on the slopes were lovely. Each photo shows the Umbrella Mountains, but further to the right in each shot – if you look carefully you can see where they overlap.
Southland / Central Otago, New Zealand. Photos taken by Nigel 07 Aug 2019.

I won’t ask whether the name Umbrella Mountains implies that remains of umbrellas were found there.

I like those snow patterns, too, Liz—very nice to greet you on your travels.

The snow patterns seem particularly special in that they don’t last long and then you’d never know they’d been there!

Oh, that looks too cold! And it very much reminds me of the north of Scotland…glad I’m here in (a very windy) England right now!! Sorry, hehe! (But, if it helps, it’s not at all summery here right at the moment – gales blowing over the whole country today.)

You as well! We had very strong winds here yesterday blowing in from the east which is unusual here. It was bitter outside (not snowy though).
