Unlike its northern equivalent, it passes mainly over ocean. New Zealand is one of the few land masses to lie in its path. In 45 South photographer Arno Gasteiger travels the 45th parallel, documenting the dramatic variety of landscapes that lie along this invisible southern marker as well as the interesting characters who call it home.
