Jim Jim Falls, in Kakadu National Park created one of those life changing moments for me, the ones that you look back on in 10 years and can picture clear as a bell.

Walking in, boulder hopping and hoping not to drop all of my camera gear in the icy Outback water, I was running out of time to make it back to a spot I wanted to capture right at the last light of sunset.

I took the extra time to walk into the final pool here and it just absolutely took my breath away, that somewhere that is so changed by the seasons can be so beautiful.

I perched precariously atop a giant boulder, one of many strewn across this ancient landscape by the unstoppable flows of wet season water, and captured this panorama, stitched together from 5 separate images. It was the only way to attempt to capture the scale of this beautiful spot.

I took some time to drink it all in and really appreciate it, before heading back out to my patiently waiting wife. 

 A calm sunset at the Bay of Fires, as the blue water contrasts the bright orange lichen of the rocks, that give this area it's name. 

Seaweed blooms on the rocks at the Bay of Fires at low tide, while the soft waves run over the rock. 

A smallish waterfall in the Otways, Cape Range National Park, this waterfall is a 2km hike down into a rainforested gully, with a VERY slippery crossing past the rocks and the stream, perilously trying not to fall in! 

After a hard day trekking the Gibb River Road, a 30 minute walk brings you down to the magical Bell Gorge. We waited around until after sunset to get the even lighting I needed for this image. I trekked around the side of the gorge, across quite a few dodgy footholds before coming to this small outcropping that I thought would suit. 

I spent about 45 minutes capturing this amazing spot and ended up with two amazing images, a vertical composition and this one, a landscape panorama image that shows the meandering creek flowing under the bridge of the track. My eyes are drawn to the beautiful mossy rocks and the large tree with roots stretching down to the water. The warm summer light filtering through the trees above gives vibrance and a delicate touch to the green ferns in this image.

After a long day exploring Litchfield National Park, we jumped into Bulley Rockholes for a relaxing hour. As we were leaving we chanced past this lower pool. After about 10 minutes I managed to get this image, without any people in it! 

Taken at the World Heritage Listed Cape Tribulation, in the Daintree Rainforest this artwork captures exactly what the area is known for, where the Rainforest meets the Reef. Taken by drone this artwork gives you the perfect birds eye view of this perfect part of Australia. 

A Birds eye view of the changing corals off the Cape Tribulation coastline. These natural artistic shapes caught my eye as I was flying over them, and combined with the amazing blue water of the area this is a stunning piece for any wall.

Early afternoon on a warm day at the Bay of Fires, and this gorgeous scene plays out in front of my lens. The bright blue waters lap at the white sand in this picturesque bay. 

 Up high above Dove Lake, near Marion's lookout, this small alpine pool reflects Cradle Mountain in all it's glory. We didn't make the hike up to the top this time, but there is always another day....

Crystal Shower Falls in full flow, cascade over the cliff edge through the lush rainforest in the Dorrigo National Park. This unusual aspect of the falls requires careful foot placement as you navigate off the path. These falls are unique in that there is an amazing cave you can walk behind the falls to.

Curtis Falls at Tamborine Mt in the Gold Coast Hinterland is a really special pocket of National Park Rainforest in the midst of roads and other tourism developments. A quick 15 minute walk from the Carpark leads you down to the falls themselves. Seriously calming, this place is full of wildlife and tranquility. This is my first released image taken on my new Sony A7RIV Camera.  It took me a good 20 minutes of experimentation to get this shot just right. 

We stumbled across this gorgeous river while exploring the Bloomfield Track, in the Daintree Rainforest. We originally stopped due to the stunning bridge to cross it, but I found this beautiful capture instead. 

The water slips down these hard iron rock terraces, flowing down off the Karijini Plateau. Sunset lights up the walls of the gorge and reflects into the flow.   

This is my 2nd visit to Devils Marbles (Karlu Karlu) and luckily this time I wasn't on a time schedule and could spend the night camping and exploring this amazing area. I went out mid afternoon after it had cooled a little to scout for my composition. I had something in mind in all 4 directions as I wasn't sure what the clouds were going to do. Once I was a little more decided and just before the start of sunset I jumped on my electric unicycle, Amanda on the mountain bike and we hit the track to this particular section.  

The Elephant Rocks, located near Denmark in Western Australia, are a breath-taking sight during the day. This photo captures a cluster of large, smooth granite rocks that rise out of the ground, resembling the shape of elephants. The rocks are surrounded by lush green vegetation, providing a stark contrast against the natural grey colour of the granite. The sunlight is shining down, illuminating the surface of the rocks and casting shadows that accentuate the unique shapes and textures. The Elephant Rocks are a popular destination for hikers and photographers alike, as the unique geological formation and natural beauty of the area make for a memorable experience. The surrounding area is also rich in history and culture, with many local Indigenous stories and legends surrounding them.

World famous, Eli Creek is known everywhere as an amazing place to relax and float down the creek, enjoying the peaceful natural environment.

On my second time down the creek I had my camera and tripod with me, and an idea for a composition that would showcase it's beauty. I loved the light blue water and the paperbark trees hanging over the creek as it flows down onto the beach year round.

Eliot Falls captured in the remote Australian location of Cape York, QLD, this dramatic, short and powerful waterfall symbolises the strength of the Australian outback!

Emmagen Creek, a crystal clear creek which was the deepest water crossing on the Bloomfield Track, Cape York, captured my eye. 

 Fern Pool is one of those magical places that just sings to you. At the end of Dales Gorge in Karijini, and recently refurbished, this excellent swimming spot has warmish water coming over the falls, keeping the whole pool at a nice temperature. This image was taken just before Sunset, after we had had an amazing swim. 

Before Florence Falls in Litchfield National Park was as insanely popular as it is today, we spent a few nights camping in the 4WD campground, next to the falls. It allowed me plenty of time and opportunity to capture this incredible natural pool, surrounded by the high red cliffs glowing in the afternoon sun. We were the only ones here.

This small unnamed creek in the Dorrigo National Park crosses the path as you walk down to the Crystal Shower Falls. I wasn't satisfied with the image from the pathway, so scrambled very carefully down to this spot. I captured a very very different image looking downstream, and turned around to leave when I spotted this composition up stream, back towards the path. The stream cuts down through the forest.

 At the bottom of Dales Gorge in Karijini National Park lies Fortescue Falls, reached by a slog up the canyon, or a walk down the nice new stairs, followed by some rock scrambling to get to the base. 

In remote Western Australia, near the westernmost point of the Mainland, sits Francois Peron National Park. It's iconic Red dirt, white sand and turquoise waters mean it is a stunning photography destination. 

 Where do I begin? This is the second time I came to Fruit Bat Falls, Cape York Peninsula as we had a hard drive failure after our first visit! I kept the same composure as last time and luckily had a beautiful Cape York night to show off this beauty and its colours.

Fruit Bat Falls captured in the remote Australian location of Cape York, QLD, this is an early evening shot, also my third attempt which finally resulted in the right light. It is a challenging composition as walking across slippery rocks carrying my camera could have ended badly. 

 What a stunning location this is. As you arrive, you park up on the hilltop, and wander down a set of steps, with the magical pool unveiling itself before you. Best seen on a warm summers day, bring your swimmers! Summer is absolutely the mood for this image. 

Intense colours characterize this amazing spot. Taken in the late afternoon, with sunlight bouncing down the gorge sides, this is some of the coldest water you will find in Australia, instantly numbing the body. I really love the structure of the rocks here as they reflect into the pool.

 A steep walk up a formed path leads you past Russell Falls below, and up to Horseshoe falls, in Mt Field National Park, in Tasmania's south.  This place is ever changing, as trees fall over and make new obstacles to the flow. 

Taken as the very last light of the day leaves the sky, this image reflects the serenity of one of the worlds most precious regions, Kakadu National Park.

The looming cliffs contrast with the extraordinarily green foliage as the vegetation here thrives even in the middle of the Dry Season.

Getting in here is a 4WD only trek, but well worth it if you can ever get here to have a look.

The National Park manages saltwater crocodiles here to make it safe to swim, you can see their boat in the foreground, and if you have eagle eyes you can spot the huge Salty croc trap on the banks of the river.

A very different view to that normally seen, I wasn't happy with the compositions I could see on the 'normal' side of the falls, so a slippery scramble across and my vision was fulfilled, the soft water flowing down the terraces of Fortescue Falls. 

Icy cold, feet numb, tripod extended. Standing in the freezing water in Handrail Pool, I loved this composition as the fingers of rock under the water stretch into the next gorge.

Story coming soon!

 In the epic Karijini National Park gorges, Kermits pool stands above as a small oasis of beautiful colour, surrounded by the intense lines and rock formations of the surrounding gorge. 

The famous blue waters at the edge of Lake McKenzie, on Fraser Island are stunning when you see them, especially next to the bright white sand on a sunny day. On our first visit here we had overcast weather, so despite trying to get a photo, I wasn't happy with the result. We headed back 2 days later on a bright sunny day and captured this beauty.
The 2 paperbarks resting on the edge of the bright blue water give a different perspective of life by the lake.

 A storm rolls in to Lake St Clair, as seen from the shoreline. About a minute before taking this photo, I had to dodge a Tiger Snake in the rocks on the lakes edge. 

Story coming soon!

 Historians aren't sure where the name Misery Beach came from, most suspect it was due to the whaling industry of the area. The beach is in a secluded spot near Albany, WA and has won the best beach in Australia award recently. The white sand, blue water and idyllic waters lapping at the beach mean the award is well deserved. 

 We were walking through the high altitude forest up in WIld Cattle Creek State Forest when the weather started closing in. Amanda raced back to get our truck and bring it to the road near where we would finish the walk, and I was walking with Aria, our daughter. We crossed a small creek and reached this spot on the Mobong River. I spent about 10 minutes capturing different compositions when I started to feel raindrops on my shoulders. 

Cursing the weather, I packed up quickly and headed off through the rainforest to the road to meet up with Amanda, all of us totally soaked as she drove up to pick us up.

The most magical spot in Tasmania. A short hike through a wet cool climate rainforest, with rain misting constantly, led me to the most gorgeous, Nelson Falls. There were so many photo spots along the walk, however the photo I have decided to release is of the falls themselves. I climbed down under the viewing platform on the slippery moss covered rocks to get the exact perspective I wanted, and, while sheltering the lens from the windblown spray and the light misting rain, captured this image.
