On an absolutely clear day (which is rare for South Island) I was fortunate enough to be able to go up in a helicopter and take pictures of the Franz Josef glacier and of Mount Cook. Some more aerial shots can be seen below …
… and one from the snout of the adjacent Fox Glacier …
A link to a selection of (unedited) images of Mount Cook can be see on this Google Photos page.
