RE: Exploring Hobbiton and the Shire in New Zealand — Toy Camera Tiltshift in a Toy-like Wonderland

in #travel7 years ago

I live in Hamilton. It's about a 45 minute drive to Hobbiton where I live. I like to think of my city as the town of Bree.
I've been to Hobbiton but I came at a time when there were tremendous amounts of tourists so I wasnt quite able to to capture he scenery without someone in frame. I'm surprised you were able to such nice pictures! 😍👌
I shall go through my photos to share. 😊
Thanks for posting 💚

Fantastic! You live in an absolutely lovely place.

I travel frequently and passionately and almost always aim for shoulder season, so that reduces tourists to begin with. If I do something like this, I try to make it midweek, and on a day where the weather is iffy, and that usually cuts it back even further.

Ooh that explains a lot!
I went on a spontanious whim, in summer time. That's the luxury of living 45 mins away but I guess timing is key. Thanks for your seasoned travel advice! 😊💚
