I am proud to present this image that captures the beauty of an outback sunset, from atop the Baruwei Lookout. The sun has just dipped below the horizon and the clouds are receiving the last little bit of light and reflecting it down to the rocks below.

I have to thank my forever helpful assistant (and wife) Amanda for making the climb up with me (and camping in a swag!) whilst 5 months pregnant, I think the view was worth it.

Whilst heading out for our anniversary dinner, my wife and I saw this gorgeous landscape laid out before us as we drove past. Pokolbin, Hunter Valley is a magical suburb containing so many beautiful small wineries.

This property sits on a low hill, and I made the most of the flowing vines leading to the house on the hill, as the last of the evening sun disappeared well below the horizon.

It was a breezy winters afternoon when my family and I headed down to the Bogey Hole, Newcastle, intent on capturing its unique beauty for a fine art photograph. Neither Amanda or I had been here before, so it was an exciting new venture for us.

As we predicted, there was some interesting cloud cover, and we were hoping they would hang around in the right place and produce one of the elements for making a great sunset. I risked slipping over when climbing some wet mossy rocks, to test various different compositions, until I settled on the one I liked and could use for my creative piece I had in mind.

After the majority of the sunset had been, I quickly returned to the main platform which is just above the level of the water and grabbed this vertical shot. This was the second creation I imagined which shows the layers of both sky and water, as the last of the sun lit up the band of clouds.

We imagine this art piece being featured at the end of an entrance way or hallway, due to the simple, clean composition and lively summer feel.

Nestled in the heart of Les Diablerets, Switzerland, this picturesque alpine scene captures the charm of a serene mountain village at sunset. The lush green meadows dotted with traditional Swiss chalets contrast beautifully with the towering snow-capped peaks in the background, creating a perfect harmony of nature and architecture. The golden glow of the setting sun bathes the landscape in warm, inviting hues, highlighting the vibrant colors and textures of the region.

Taken from the vantage point of a cozy chalet, this image showcases the tranquil beauty and timeless appeal of Les Diablerets. Known for its breathtaking vistas and outdoor adventures, this charming Swiss destination offers an idyllic escape for nature lovers and photography enthusiasts alike. Whether you’re drawn to the scenic hiking trails or simply wish to unwind in a peaceful alpine setting, Les Diablerets promises an unforgettable experience.

Lofoten Islands, above the Arctic Circle in Norway are incredible, with mountains emerging from the ocean. We travelled there in Summer, and made it up to this incredible lookout at Offersøykammen, looking North towards the Arctic. It's a really short, hard hike and results in feeling on top of the world and exhausted. 

 A really famous spot on the Southern coast of Western Australia, Lucky Bay National Park is just incredible, with it's white sand and bluest of blue water. Taken at the end of the Lucky Bay Beach, this scene invokes warm summers for me. 

Lud's Church is a remarkable geological formation located in the Peak District National Park, Staffordshire, England. This deep, moss-covered chasm was created by a massive landslip in the Millstone Grit bedrock, resulting in a natural ravine over 100 metres long and 18 metres deep. The stone steps winding up out of the gorge led me to take this image, which entices you in.

 Captured at the iconic Maheno Wreck on Fraser Island we waited over 1 hour for sunset to happen. We weren't sure if any colour was going to occur in the sky due to the bank of cloud. The slight colour tones work really nicely in this image, it allows the wreck to be highlighted and keeps the artwork simple. 

We had been waiting days and days for the right cloud formation to make this popular Maitland NSW view off the Belmore Bridge composition shine.

I had explored the area thoroughly and decided on this composition a few weeks ago, I loved the federation house looking out onto the river, and the curve of the river heading off into the distance.

We headed out a few times for photos of the composition when the cloud cover looked promising, but alas it was never quite right. Amanda strongly suggested that we head out again, despite my resistance (I didn't think it would be an epic sunset!) but we ended up heading out, for a walk along the levee if nothing else.

We got there just as the golden colours were starting, and I resumed my position on the Belmore Road bridge. The sunset was short and sweet, and the final picture showed a beautiful range of oranges, blues, greens and pinks. The mist off the river in the distance adds to the calm country feel of this river. It's a fair change from a few months ago during the drought when everything was brown and yellow.

I was heading to work one morning at a different location to normal and drove past this forest of Malaleuca trees. I didn't have my camera with me and it was one of those moments I wish I did. So from that day forward, I took my camera and left a little earlier every day, waiting for the sunrise to do its thing, one more time for me.

I was lucky, only a few days of waiting and the sun shone exactly they way I had hoped and it lit up these magnificent tree trunks and leaves, creating this glowing artwork.

Manarola in Cinque Terre, Italy is one of the 5 towns of this region, accessed by rail or ferry. We visited in winter when the crowds weren't too crazy, thankfully! The towns are a photographers dream, and I spent the day wandering, looking for the perfect spot. We waited and waited and got a beautiful sunset, however I kept shooting through until the lights in the town came on. I preferred the blue hour shot over the sunset shot for once! We rushed to catch the last train after I decided enough was enough. 

 This image was taken just as the first orange glow from the rising sun came over the Darwin City horizon at this beautiful location.

We had gotten out of bed at 3:45 AM to make it here, and boy was it worth it.

These amazing geographical phenomenon are very interesting to photograph.

Set on a lonely windswept New Zealand Beach, we stayed the night in a nearby car park in our motorhome, before I woke up early to capture sunrise.

I didn't have time the previous afternoon to do any scouting, so had to wing it as I arrived. (Amanda stayed in bed with Aria until a bit later!)

I wasn't alone. Throughout the night we had heard vehicles arrive, and at Sunrise I was greeted with about 15 other tourists setting up cameras here.

I concentrated on myself and my composition, picking two compositions that I really liked and waiting for the right light to emerge. Emerge it did, Blue water and orange clouds combining to these spectacular colours in the wash of the waves.

This image is taken at the aptly named "Wreck Beach", off the Great Ocean Road in Victoria.

The anchor is from a ship called the Marie Gabrielle, which wrecked on this spot in 1869, carrying a load of Tea from China. The anchor is all that remains of the wreck in this incredible location, a testament to how rough the seas can be in this spot, far from this idyllic but cold summers morning.

We parked for the night above the wreck, and made the trek down the 400 or so stairs at about 4am in order to be there for first light. Finding the anchor in pitch black conditions was no picnic, we weren't able to scout the location beforehand. Nonetheless, we made it and I set up for the image.

The sunrise was extremely dissapointing with minimal light, and the clouds above refused to fire up. I was just packing up my equipment to leave when Amanda pointed up and said excitedly, "It's happening!"

I set my stuff back up, slightly adjusted for the clouds and fired away as the clouds grew from pale grey to fluoro pink and then orange. It was all over in about 8 minutes, but it was just enough time for this shot. The walk back up the stairs was no picnic, apparently we climbed 22 stories in 340m to get back to the car.

Captured at 1am during Summer, This outstanding image had me standing out with Sheep on the beach for about 2 hours, as the sun dropped just under the horizon and then bobbed back up again. The waters of the Skjelfjorden lapped at my tripod feet, and I had to ensure the water movement didn't ruin the image.

This Port Stephens sunset image captures the relaxing atmosphere of the peninsula perfectly.

I have never seen the waters of Tilligerry Creek, Port Stephens as calm as at Sunset on this winter’s afternoon. Sailboats and Houseboats alike sit moored at this calm inlet, as the sun sets away from them, leaving the simplicity of the vessels and their reflections to imprint my camera sensor.

The peach and apricot colours of this image are offset by the white of the skies edge and the pink blush starting to come through the glow.

Relax with this strikingly simple image decorating your lounge room, office or bedroom, and think about these peaceful vessels at sunset.

 Historians aren't sure where the name Misery Beach came from, most suspect it was due to the whaling industry of the area. The beach is in a secluded spot near Albany, WA and has won the best beach in Australia award recently. The white sand, blue water and idyllic waters lapping at the beach mean the award is well deserved. 

On my daily trip to work, I drove past this spot every morning! I have spotted this fantastic mist forming due to the "cold" weather! I have been leaving for work a bit early and stopping to try to capture the moment.

This morning I was able to capture this beautiful sunrise, with the mist wreathing over this paddock.

Please enjoy this photo, taken near the McMillans Rd, Stuart Hwy intersection.

 We were walking through the high altitude forest up in WIld Cattle Creek State Forest when the weather started closing in. Amanda raced back to get our truck and bring it to the road near where we would finish the walk, and I was walking with Aria, our daughter. We crossed a small creek and reached this spot on the Mobong River. I spent about 10 minutes capturing different compositions when I started to feel raindrops on my shoulders. 

Cursing the weather, I packed up quickly and headed off through the rainforest to the road to meet up with Amanda, all of us totally soaked as she drove up to pick us up.

This image was taken during a trip to Victoria at the very start of 2017. I was at Whisky Bay for sunrise (just). We had been kicked out of our sleeping spot in the carpark at Whisky Bay for "Safety", so had to drive all the way out of the park at 11pm, and drive all the way back in at 4am!

Anyway, it was dark when we headed down to the beach. I got some beautiful pre-dawn photo's which I will share with you later, however during the sunrise I spotted this outcropping of rocks and decided to climb up to see if I could get a better view.

Near the top, I saw this incredible natural feature, a slit in the rocks with the surf pounding in and out, just as the natural red lichen in the area was being lit beautifully by the rising sun.

At the base of Saint Colomba Falls, this small spring feeds into the raging river. An oasis of mossy green, I felt so relaxed taking this image. 

 What a unique and stunning experience! An old Dam set up for Nickel mining, this was built in the 1940's, before it was decided it was uneconomical to keep. They cut a hole in the dam wall, where a mountain spring flows now, surrounded by lush rainforest. 

 Captured from the shores of the unique Lady Musgrave Island, located in the Southern Great Barrier Reef, this image depicts life on the island, pure bliss. 

Mutee Head, Cape York - I was free camping in this amazing spot near the top of Cape York, and we stayed for a few nights, hoping to see some turtles nesting. This amazing sunset was one of the rare ones on the East Coast of Australia that have the sun set over water. Luckily we were ready for it and I managed to capture such a stunner.

Mutee Head, Cape York - Our caravan is in the background of this shot, facing North towards the tip of Cape York. A very long exposure here has smoothed out the waves and the clouds, while picking up the beautiful backscatter of purple light from the sun setting.

 This small unnamed creek in the Dorrigo National Park crosses the path as you walk down to the Crystal Shower Falls. I wasn't satisfied with the image from the pathway, so scrambled very carefully down to this spot, where I could see the fallen logs crossing the stream.  I spent about half an hour here taking images trying to find the best composition. I love the contrasts between the lush vegetation and the brown of the riverbed.

 An amazing natural formation, lit up by the beautiful WA sunset. 

The most magical spot in Tasmania. A short hike through a wet cool climate rainforest, with rain misting constantly, led me to the most gorgeous, Nelson Falls. There were so many photo spots along the walk, however the photo I have decided to release is of the falls themselves. I climbed down under the viewing platform on the slippery moss covered rocks to get the exact perspective I wanted, and, while sheltering the lens from the windblown spray and the light misting rain, captured this image. 

Cows wander through their farm as the clouds above light up. 

This extremely rare formation of clouds formed over Namingha, near Tamworth, NSW.  We were in the middle of dinner at our caravan as we travel around Australia, when we spotted the cloud formation beginning to light up.  

We abandoned dinner and jumped straight into our truck, determined to capture something with this epic formation. We drove out to a spot I had previously scouted and checked out, with an amazing gully and hill behind it. 

Story coming soon!

 Newcastle Baths, my favourite photo spot in Newcastle, NSW. I love it so much because there are such a variety of things and seascapes in a small area, with 3 different sides, so no matter which way clouds are lighting up at sunset or sunrise you can get something beautiful.

These fisherman were standing right in the way of my composition, I loved the leading line of the water channel drawing the viewers eye into the image. I quickly thought about the final image I wanted and decided to take advantage of the fishermen to really set the scene, an iconic Australian past time in a beautiful setting.

This image was taken at Casuarina Coastal Reserve. We took our puppies for an evening play and a run around, and naturally I double booked and brought the camera equipment.

There's not much to say about this one. I took it after the sun had dipped below the horizon. It's a 30 second exposure using a few ND filters to balance the light.

I was pretty lucky that there was this much cloud being dry season, it can be quite plain without cloud cover!
