Moonset
As the moon makes its descents, seconds before the sun arises.

Celestial
Above a sea of cloud, where mountains reign and the full moon broke the darkness of night. A cherished memory, where many conditions briefly aligned to behold this moment. Aerial perspective, single exposure.

Defy
Against all odds, this rare sight is engrained in my memory, as the sun set and the full moon ascended behind the tallest peaks in the country. Single exposure, aerial image.

Highest Of Heights
A rare, fleeting moment captured from the air at 10,000ft, as the setting super-moon descends behind Aoraki/Mt Cook right on dawn.

End Of Darkness
The full moon setting at the break of dawn, overlooking Doubtful Sound. A telephoto perspective shot from a plane, after 12 months of waiting for wind, rain, sun, moon and cloud to all align in this one moment. In my life I have truly witnessed the upmost grandeur of creation and for this I’m highly thankful and indebted to pursue these sights and capture such places with all that I am. Thank you for viewing.

Harmony
A moment of harmony and order, high above a world searching for truth and peace. An aerial image, captured from 9500ft, as the sun set and the full moon ascended.
