Arms Of The Forest
Golden yellow leaves are sprinkled throughout the canopy of the Silver Beech during autumn, which makes for a vibrant contrast against the green forest. The contorted branches of the silver beech are one of my favourite elements in the natural world. This frame is my attempt at showing the beauty of the trees as well as this lovely waterfall on the coast.

Where We Wander
An enjoyable morning spent boating into the wilderness, then hiking and wading to follow this beautiful stream with my son. You can check out the vlog over on my Youtube channel.

Split Falls
A towering fall divided in two as it pours down into the valley below. A wonderful, isolated area of wilderness I enjoyed exploring. You can see the making of this image over on my Youtube channel.

Emerging from the shadowy canyon walls, water poured from the high mountains above.

Radiance
An afternoon spent hiking and wading in the back country led us to this pristine waterfall as the sun descended through the trees. A sceen straight from a dream.

An incredibly remote waterfall, tucked away beneath the mountains. This whole area was a paradise to explore.

The Fall Of Light
A special location in some special conditions. I waited some time for this sun alignment and the right weather window. Spontaneous photography is generally favourite but planned shoots like this are also greatly rewarding, when everything comes together and the vision becomes reality.
This image is part of a new tutorial I’ll be releasing soon showing how I plan, execute and create my work.

Water & Stone
A walk and scramble in the mountains led me to this viewpoint, after heavy rain caused the mountains to weep. Overlooking a grand valley I enjoyed working this scene as it was slowly enveloped in cloud.

The Unseen
In the wild places of Fiordland, innumerable falls of pristine beauty course through the hidden depths of mountain valleys. This is one such waterfall we discovered after boating and wading a creek into the vibrant greens of narrow gorge.

Unbridled
The final descent, as waters make their free fall into the sea. One of thousands of waterfalls which pour from the cliffs and mountains of Milford Sound on a rain filled day.

The beautiful chaos and order of the forest.

Cascade Bridge
A special place where hidden waters course through the deep depths of the forested mountains. A delicate moss covered arch frames up this spectacular falls. Words or images fail to portray its really beauty. You just need to be there, absorbed in the moment.

Affinity
Since childhood, I’ve had an affinity for waterfalls. I love the anticipation that builds, hearing the trickle and roar of the water long before the fall is visible. This, like many I visit, is tucked away in the shadows of the mountains. Waiting for wanderers to pass by and enjoy a moment in its presence.

Emerald Fall
This waterfall is unnamed. It’s one of thousands which are hidden from view, tucked away in mountainous valleys, gorges and dense forests. After boating and then hiking into dark confines of Fiordland, I’m confident very few, if any at all have even stood here. This is the most enjoyable part of photography for me, the exploration and surprises that await. It doesn’t always work out but when it does, it’s hard to beat. Green is my favourite colour and the water here had such a beautiful shade to it. Emerald Fall seems like a fitting title.

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

Cascade
One of an innumerable amount of waterfalls which weep from the mountains during a rainstorm in Milford. I like the way the droplets bounce and dance on their steep descent.

Glorious
The soft afternoon light filtering through the depths of a canyon, caught in the swirling mists of a waterfall. A truly special scene to behold.

Above And Below
The swing and dance of water falling and drifting above and below.

Cleansed
Pure peace and beauty. A place of solace and solitude, tucked away in a myriad of canyons surrounded by rainforest. Check out my Youtube to see how this image was created.

First Love
When I first started out, one of the first things I wanted to capture with my camera was a waterfall. Here we are, well over a decade later and innumerable waterfalls and I still can’t get enough. I’ve been drawn to waterfalls and green forests since I was a child. Here’s a beautiful one on the West Coast of the South Island.

Fall With Me
A hidden waterfall tucked away beneath the mountains. I’d shared this location with friends when I created this image, as the gorgeous winter light crept into the canyon. Upon returning a month later, I discovered a landslide had caused trees to fall and the whole area is now quite destroyed. Nature gives and takes.

Spirit
Beneath a towering fall, where storms dance and sculpt the land.

At the exact right moment, an ethereal beauty is found amongst the chaos.
