Fire Fiord
The most spectacular sunset I’ve witnessed and what a place to be for it! Single exposure. Video on my Youtube channel.
Milford Sound, Fiordland New Zealand
War Of the waters
A violent storm whipping up the sea, waterfalls and rain back up into the sky.

Final Flame
A sky that left us speechless, in a place that needs no introduction. After all these years, it still takes my breath away, especially when the sky is set ablaze in such glory.

Rage
A moment of beautiful rage, in the narrowest part of the fiord during an immense storm. We clocked wind gusts up at 130km/h on this day. A power and fury I won’t forget.

Water Walls
One of the stormiest days I’ve experienced in the great fiord.

Wrath
As a professional landscape photographer living in Fiordland, it’s safe to say I’ve visited Milford Sound my fair share of times. Of the hundreds of visits and countless storms, this is one that has left the strongest impression. As 130km/h wind gusts funnelled the fiord, the surface of the sea was uplifted and mingled with rain and waterfalls that ascended into the heavens. A truly humbling display of the sublime.

After a torrential downpour, it’s a humbling sight as the mountains weep from summit to sea. There’s nowhere quite like it.

Mountain Weep
A humbling scene where mountains rise vertically from the depths of the sea, swirled in cloud and rain as waterfalls weep from the towering heights.

Milford Sound
Being a local to Fiordland and through running photography workshops, I find myself in Milford Sound many times through the year. This grand landscape is always inspiring and on occasion still urges me to take out my camera to at least try and capture its beauty. This sunset was one such moment.

The sheer volume of water that flows from these mountains is quite staggering, as the granite walls continuously weep in unison with sky.

Milford Majesty
An iconic view that seems to transcend time, the Milford fiord rivals the greatest scenery on earth with its symmetry and towering peaks that rise dramatically from the depths of the sea. Living local and having a strong bond with this icon, I felt overdue to create something new here, but waiting for the right cloud was essential. After a few weeks of closely monitoring the conditions, this was the sunset I was waiting for.

Place Of Rest
The light sure seems extra special in a region that is often clothed in rain. Bowen Falls and late afternoon light painting the land.

Tessellation
The force of fresh water charging across the surface of the sea, after falling from a height three times higher than Niagara Falls. A classic perspective here, as the spider web of water is created below Stirling Falls.

Time Of Noah
Three times higher than Niagara Falls, here is Stirling Falls in Milford Sound, captured in the midst of a torrential downpour. It’s taken me quite a few years to capture an image here that portrays all that I love about this place.
