Hi everyone,</p>

<p>My very first post on Photo.net despite following the site for donkey years! I was in Fiji and took loads of photos, as well as some videos which I though I'd share with you guys. I was also lucky enough to have the opportunity to shoot some aerial footage of the place.<br>

Absolutely stunning country, I take no credit for the photos as all I did was to click the shutter, Fiji took care of the rest!<br>

Aerial video here...<br>

<p>Please let me know your thoughts and if you're considering visiting the South Pacific, I would wholehearted recommend it.</p>

<p>I agree that the South Pacific is worth visiting. I was in Fiji in 1999 and have been going to the South Pacific for 20 years now. Flights used to be affordable but that is changing quickly. It is still my favorite shooting destination. </p>

<p>I assume you're travelling from the US Steve? How easy/hard is it to get to the South Pacific from the States? I was travelling from Asia and it took close to a day of flying and transiting at airports to get there, but I guess it just added to the 'exotic' factor!<br>

I really love Fiji and hope to visit it again, along with other South Pacific islands. Do you have any photos to share Steve? Would love to see them!</p>

<p>Yes, I travel from the US and it still quite a long flight to Fiji. French Polynesia and the Cook Islands are easy flights tho at 7 and 9 hours. My shots are on film, with a few scanned but the files of the scanned shots are too large to post. <br>

The Kingdom of Tonga is very scenic as well but the best of the So Pacific are the Society Islands of Fr. Polynesia. </p>
