Now officially available as a limited edition art print is Sundown at Lake Morgan, Mt O'Shanessy, West Coast, New Zealand - available in four sizes available to fit your space perfectly.

Lake Morgan Hut is a cosy spot not far from the lake and there are numerous tarns and beautiful rivers to appreciate depending on which way you walk. View the print in more detail here.

Time seemed eternal as the sun slowly sank behind the hills. More visits over the years...
