Captured by the talented Burton Brothers, this image showcases the awe-inspiring fjord known as Piopiotahi, which Rudyard Kipling hailed as the eighth Wonder of the World. Nestled within Fjordland National Park on the South Island, Milford Sound is a geographical masterpiece that leaves visitors spellbound even today. The sheer grandeur of its towering mountains and pristine waters makes it a true paradise for nature enthusiasts. In this monochrome snapshot, we can see the majestic mountains rising from Tasman Sea's tranquil depths. Lush trees and plants adorn their slopes, adding an element of serenity to this untouched wilderness. It's no wonder that Milford Sound has become a renowned tourist attraction over time.
