Hanging On
Mt Madeleine and remnants of a once mighty glacier which carved the peaks and valleys of Fiordland.
Power to believe
Mount Aspiring, the prince of the southern alps.

Brothers of the earth
The peaks of Aoraki and Tititea (Cook and Aspiring), looking along the spine of the Southern Alps.
South Island, New Zealand
Glory
A moving moment, after 2 years of prior attempts to behold the magnificent Mt Fitzroy illuminated by the light of a new day. Not much else on earth rivals this sight.
Fitzroy, Patagonia
Sea of stone
Mount Cook centred above the glaciated sea of stone, that is the Southern Alps.

Stronghold
Stormy skies and atmospheric conditions at dawn. The towers of the Fitzroy massif prepare to endure.
Patagonia, Argentina
Ice Empire
Cerro Torre, the mighty peak aflame at dawn. One cannot stand before this sight and not be moved by such imposing beauty.
Cerro Torre, Patagonia Argentina
Valor
Whether above the craggy peaks or below in the lush valleys, Fiordland has a way of impacting the soul of all who are exposed to its timeless beauty. Captured at dawn, this is my favourite mountain on earth, Mount Tutoko.
Emerge
Autumn colours vibrantly decorate the landscape in Patagonia, for a brief window in time before the sting of winter arrives.
Fitzroy, Patagonia
The Vision
After 2 previous trips to Patagonia and having the weather deny me, this was a sight I’ve truly longed to see. The mighty Cerro Torre framed by the unmistakable fall colours in this beautiful region of Argentina.

Valley of the fiord
10,000 ft up, looking across the steep valleys to the high throne of Fiordland with Mount Tutoko and Madeline standing above the sea of petrified stone.

Majesty In Misery
The acceptance of darkness and its requirement to let light shine in life.

When I trust in you
As darkness finally gave way to light, beside cascading torrents of rain water in Lofoten, Norway.
The Wall
Across the raging waters of the sea, beholding the humbling sight of countless waterfalls plummeting over a thousand feet into the deep waters below.
Milford Sound, New Zealand
Seeking Eternity
Heavy rains produced this powerful fall that descended from an upper valley in Lofoten. Curiosity got the better of me as I continued climbing up the slopes before getting caught in the downfall.
Lofoten Norway
Dawning
Through running my Iceland workshops, I’ve visited Kirkjufell dozens of time now yet haven’t shot here for almost 4 years. What unfolded this morning was really special though, as the sky began to glow and anti-crepuscular rays beamed from the horizon. A sight worthy of praise and of course, getting the camera out.
Kirkjufell, Grundarfjordur Iceland
Light & Life
Looking west from the Earl mountains, toward the incredibly still and reflective waters of Lake Te Anau.
Te Anau, New Zealand
Piopiotahi (Milford Sound)
The glorious cathedral of shadow and light. the mighty fiord, bathed in the glow of an autumnal dusk. It’s a place that never fails to leave an impression on those that have spent time beneath it’s towering granite walls. For me, this was one such time.
Milford Sound, Fiordland, New Zealand
To The Flame
After several days of darkness in Lofoten, the brief sight of this golden light carried a renewing energy in its wings.
Lofoten Norway
Dream
I do enjoy the sweet, candy-like smell of a field lupin. I made a couple of morning trips to scout around the valleys over summer. After some river fords, this area was most exceptional for the vibrant flowers that stretched off into the horizon.
