Resurrect
Morning light breaks over the frosted landscape at Selfoss, Iceland. The final 10 feet of reaching this composition were very interesting to say the least.

Majesty
An image from my first visit to the incredible landscape of Iceland, shared with my good friend Cameron in 2015. After being on the road in Iceland for a mere hour, I had virtually lost count of the waterfalls I had seen. This is Bruarfoss, a fall that I was quite keen to visit. Arriving at sunrise I was a little overwhelmed at the composition options here as well as the force of the rushing water that seemed to flow in every direction. Once the sun finally breached the horizon I couldn’t resist accessing the upper falls and trying to capture the beautiful morning light that brought these waters to life. In typical Icelandic fashion, it began to snow quite heavily ten minutes after shooting this. It was Cam’s first time in the snow, just him and I laughing away at how spectacular it was to be here. The laughter soon subsided as we literally ran as fast as we could back to the safety of the car.

Cradle Mountain
The morning began quite dark with this entire valley a sea of fog. Not long after sunrise the wind changed direction and in less than a minute the entire valley was cleared, revealing the beautiful calm reflections of Dove Lake and iconic face of Cradle Mountain. My friend Zach helped give some scale as he took in what would have to be one of Australia’s finest views.

Cathedral Rocks
Over the many years I have shot here, this light is easily the most incredible I have witnessed. Here, another photographer that I met takes in the glory as it unfolded into something worth more than words could ever explain. – Cathedral Rocks, Kiama Australia.

Ancient Of Days
Sculpted by the waves of times past, sitting as one with this earthen shore. Defenseless as the night sky is pierced from east to west, utterly reminded of our mortal existence.

Ascension
A temporary sea sculpture gracing me with its presence for a mere 1/1000 of a second. Despite it’s short life, I found myself impacted for much longer. Even the briefest encounters, shortest of words, faintest of smiles can go a long way.

Inflamed Colossals
Watching these sugar pine trees come to life at sunrise was truly a special moment. Dust particles in the air were filtered by the radiance of the morning sun as the warm glow spread throughout the forest.

The Star Of Absolution
Here in Australia I tried for a long time, yet failed to find a waterfall which lined up with the sun. When visiting Purakaunui Falls in New Zealand back in 2014, I couldn’t believe my luck when I arrived to find the sun filtering through a small gap in the trees above. The rare alignment of light lasted no longer then ten minutes, which resulted in me scrambling and sliding around the wet rocks here, trying to get the sunstar just right. I’ve visited a couple of times since but never really experienced the light like I did on this first encounter.

The Unknown
There are some places where nature is slowly reclaiming its place. This is an older image from 2013, an abandoned train line located at Helensburgh NSW. Capturing the fall here all comes down to timing. A good solid downpour of rain is needed for at least 24hrs. If you arrive too soon, there will hardly be a trickle, arrive too late and the entire tunnel fills and floods up to the ceiling.

Know hope
One of the most moving experiences I have had with a camera. After a rough week, I was eager to escape and spend some time by the sea. After work I made my way to the beach. As the sun began to set I noticed this rock shelf far in the distance and then suddenly a small rainbow appeared on the horizon. I ran as fast as I could across the beach. What was only 300 meters or so felt like a marathon. After slipping and sliding across the mossy rocks, I stood before this scene. With the ocean raging, a storm looming overhead and a bow of light out at sea, I felt the weight of the world lift off my shoulders as I was reminded why I loved photography so much.

Tree of life
I grew up passing by this tree on a daily basis and always thought it would make a great subject for a painting or photo. Many years later, not long after picking up a camera, I ventured here and captured this simple photo. It remains the oldest image in my portfolio yet one of the most special to me. In this moment I realised the power and joy of photography, how we can make our visions a reality and share with others how we truly see the world.

I find solace in the places untouched by the hands of the corrupt. And as these are made few, I look and hope upon Him to come and right our many wrongs. WP
This is a personal favorite image which has been published in several magazines and also exhibited in the Smithsonian Museum in Washington DC. Experiencing the majesty and grandeur of Yosemite was an experience I won’t ever forget. I endeavoured to capture one image that really summed up my love and respect for this incredible landscape. This is it.
