What a magical sunset this was.
We were in Sydney for Vivid, having booked a room overlooking the harbour for the evening.
We were umming and ahhing about whether to stay in our room for the sunset or to head out for a walk. We decided that a ferry for McMahons point was just the ticket.
We only just made it in time, and it was really cold and windy! But I managed to catch these amazing colours as the sun set over the city and the bridge, the soft, golden glow lighting up the sides of buildings, while the blue of the water sets the tone of the image.

This blue hour artwork of Tamworth, NSW captured from Oxley Scenic Lookout was one I was surprised about. I wasn't as focused as normal this night as we had just arrived in Tamworth earlier in the afternoon after a stressful couple of days getting our caravan stuck and then unstuck, but Amanda & I both needed to get out and do something we love, and we are so glad we did.
Not only did we enjoy this amazing lookout, a warm summer evening and capture this artwork, we met another travelling family and immediately became friends. This then led to a wonderful couple of days meeting up and enjoying all the Tamworth das to offer. Another thing we love about being on the road exploring and capturing, making life long friends and memories.

Moonbi Lookout, about 20 minutes North of Tamworth on the road to Armidale provides amazing views down the Tamworth Valley. This lookout was built in the 1930's as part of Australia's infrastructure projects to drag us out of the Great Depression.
A huge granite boulder sits on top of the hill, and a staircase and railings have been built next to it, providing an amazing place to view the valley from, and even free camp at.

Captured Tannum Sands looking towards Gladstone, I didn't expect the sky to light up as it did. It was dull and just the sun popping under the thick clouds. I did my thing, then waited a little longer just in case and wow did it pop!!

I was told about this gorgeous spot by a mate who comes here for 4WD'ing occasionally. We were headed down to Adelaide River stormchasing, hoping to catch a stormfront as it hit the floodplains, however it was not to be. As we drove south the storms seemed to part away from us.
We moved to Plan B, this spot that I had been told the (Very rough) location of. We eventually found the road up just as the sun was starting to set. The road was extremely steep and we encountered a washout about 40m up. In the name of caution we decided to roll back down the hill, park the car and walk up to the top.
This turned out to be a bit of a mistake, the climb was 40 stories according to my wife's Fitbit, and at a very steep gradient.
We made it to the top just as the sun was truly starting to show some colour. I got out my panorama gear and camera, levelled everything and setup just in time to catch this amazing ray of light as it pierced the stormy clouds sideways from the setting sun.
A true moment of beauty in the Australian outback.

This dramatic image invokes a lot of memories for me, waiting in the still, calm air as a Territory storm comes rolling in towards me.
I captured this image at Cullen Bay Marina, in Darwin right at the tail end of the storm season. This was one of the last big blows, and it really showed. You can see the line of rain sheeting down behind the stormfront, lit up by cloud lightning, all as the boats sit calmly, not even rocking as the air is completely still.
We just made it to our car after this photo, before the wind and rain really hit. We were lucky to have had the time to sit and watch natures fury while protected by a thin sheet of glass.

An amazing winter location, just North of the Hunter Region in the Barrington Tops lies this Pine Forest known as 'The Firs'. The mist of the snowy day rings mystery to the area and I feels bring a different perspective and feel to this artwork.

This photo epitomizes Wet Season in the Territory to me. At the time the monsoonal clouds blocking the sun, but just as the sun set, it got a small break in the clouds and was able to put this colour into the sky.
The location was East Point, with the iconic Darwin coloured rocks. This was my alternate location for the evening, after I failed to check the tide times and my primary spot was underwater!
Still, I was very glad that I ended up here for this moment in time.

This unnamed shearing hut in the heart of the Hunter Valley farmlands, captured on a smokey summers evening displays both an important slice of Australian heritage, and also a beautiful memory of time gone by.
The golden grasses of summer combine with debris from the shearing shed to litter the ground, on a still working farm, located on Old North Road near Cessnock, NSW.

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.

After capturing this stunning blue water spot from above, I ventured underneath, suspecting that a structured under jetty photo might be possible. I am always on the lookout for these, as the symmetry and leading lines provided by a jetty above can make for a striking image. They are surprisingly rare though! I love the simple colours and beauty of this structure.

After a gravel road to enter Byfield National Park, and then a short walk from the park, we wandered up the river to encounter this beautiful site known as Upper Stoney Creek. With deadly Stonefish living in the river, it's not the best place to swim, however its beauty shines through here as the green leaves highlight the massive paperbarks flowing over the river.

This image was taken at Vesteys Beach, in Darwin, NT.
I scouted this location on numerous occasions, waiting for the tide to be in the right spot while there was a chance for a beautiful sunset to occur.
Luckily Sunday night was the night. I made the short walk out onto the exposed rock shelf as the tide was quite low this evening. The sunset appeared promising with significant cloud cover, however you can never ever tell what will happen. Some nights the sun will just quietly slip into nothing behind a cloud bank, and some nights it will light up the sky with its atmospheric fire.
This night was such a one, with the sunset transitioning from dark foreboding clouds hiding a fiery red ball, into this, 15 minutes after actual sun set.
I took all of my panorama gear with me, and used it to good effect here, for this 9 image stitched panorama, just as the light got really special, reflecting off the rocks in a beautiful light orange glow.
This is a 9 image stitched panorama image, over 324 Megapixel, 4.2 gb in size and able to be printed up to over 10 metres wide.

Captured at Wanggalooba Creek, on Fraser Island, this crystal clear fresh water creek was something I have never seen before. Just a short 20min walk from our Central Station Campground led us along the creek and down to many magical sections of the creek.
The sand is white on the creek bed, and with just a few inches of water flowing over the top it looks dry, until you see the glistening water surface. I ducked down the creek banks and made my way down the creek, scoping out compositions on the way, before I found this fallen tree across the creek bed. I quickly got really low down the the creeks surface to capture this unique composition.

Whitehaven beach, the world's best beach, needs no introduction. It was incredible to finally see it in person, and it definitely did not disappoint, white sand, sunshine and clear bright blue water gently lapping at the sands edge. We could have sat here all day! It was a great spot for our lunch and a quick photo to provide those bright blue and white colours that are fashionable in houses at the moment.

An Aerial footage of the incredible Willie Creek, as the blue water wends it's way up into the mud/salt flats, surrounded by Mangroves. This is prime Saltwater Crocodile territory, and you definitely wouldn't go swimming here, but the way that nature's beauty shines in this image captivates me.

We reached the top of Wineglass Bay, hoping for an amazing sunset, and as we climbed over the peak and and saw the amazing view, the clouds and rain started rolling across the bay from the far side. I scoped out the shot composition I wanted, packed the camera away in it's bag, and we settled into our raincoats jackets and umbrellas to wait out the storm and see if something unique could happen. After 20 minutes, we got a break in the clouds and the sunset poked through, allowing me this unique and interesting image, far from the normal blue waters of Wineglass Bay.

I was on a quick trip down the East Coast of NSW one afternoon and it was approaching sunset/dinner time. I did a quick google of a town near by with something of photography interest and came across Woolgoolga. The sky was looking interesting and I didn't have much time to get myself organised, but that's ok, as very rarely it pays off like this one did.

This creek in the beautiful Mossman Gorge near Port Douglas is the absolute embodiment of beauty in nature.
We recently went to this location during the wet season, and this creek is a solid 3km walk through the rainforest to get to. By the time we reached it, I took about 3 photo's then couldn't stand it any more, stripped off and went for a swim! The water was seriously chilly and extremely refreshing.
This is one of my favourite locations from recent shoots.

One summer evening we decided to join friends for a picnic at Warner's Bay. They told us it's usually lovely there for sunset, music, cheese and crackers. But this particular evening there was a storm approaching after a rainy day so the music was cancelled. We convened with our friends and decided to risk the weather and enjoy a night off from working. Ha, who am I kidding, I'm always working when we are out and about at sunset.
We were all sitting there and then all of a sudden we looked at each other and said 'I think the sunset might actually do something interesting'. I left Amanda, Aria and our friends, Erica and Ash and ran to the car to get my gear.
As I set myself up, this young couple perched themselves on the end of the pier, enjoying the moment, each other's company and their love for each other. The sun continued to set and give off these amazing sun rays and light up the sky. The lake was silent, calm and elegant, it matched the mood of this young couple perfectly.
The storm was still getting closer, so not long after this shot we packed up to head home before we got wet. Such a contrast to what was miserable rainy day.
