Photographer - landscapes in remote and cooler climates are my passion. But I also find time to shoot closer to home when I can. No AI, just lens, light and intent...

A peaceful morning on the beach at sunrise. Summertime and sunrise here in Queensland is awfully early 😴 but very worthy once you’re up!
Moments in nature.

Spending time immersed in the forest, always good value…

Patagonia at its best, well captured Christoph!
In a spectacle of nature's infinite power, glorious Mount Fitz Roy, battered by furious winds, emerges from the clouds. Patagonia's mountains can be hidden for days, but when they clear, the beauty is endless!

The Grand Mosque.

A magnificent structure in Abu Dhabi and one that is often photographed. Regardless, once there I was keen to visit and explore both inside and outside the mosque. The evening I took this image the reflections in the pool were perfect.

Reflections.

Buildings with their reflective exteriors offer so much art to the cities they are located within. Don't know why, but that is what I have been shooting in recent times.
Back to nature soon... 🏔️

The Colours of Autumn.

There is nothing like immersing yourself in the forest and being surrounded by deciduous foliage. Even better if you have your camera handy to capture those scenes...

Indoors.

It's Saturday here and summer heatwave conditions forecast. With 38℃ plus high humidity in the coming period, indoors is the place to be. Stay cool and hydrated peeps...

Image taken during time spent in London, where it was much cooler.

Winter calm.

Seeing so many beautiful winter scenes here on #Bluesky in the last week, though I'd add one I shot during a northern hemisphere winter. Hope you enjoy...

Erasmusbrug.

Something a little different than nature and landscapes today. The stunning bridge, LE shot taken close to sunset on the harbour at Rotterdam.

Yellow-tailed Black Cockatoo.

These guys were watching me as I was shooting landscapes very late in the day. They appear very inquisitive, eventually landing and watching me. Even at 1/1000th sec shutter speed the tips of their wings were blurred. That is some movement...

Dogs of Bhutan.

An incredible time in an amazing country. Dogs, they are everywhere in the cities and towns just doing their own thing...

2025.

How to finish the year here. I put together a 30 second video of my images, then prepared 4 of my favourites from the year. Not happy, so just a simple shot of a tree in water taken close to home.
Hope your 2025 ends well and to an even better 2026. All the very best! 🙋‍♂️

Exiting...

A polar bear exiting the water onto the drifting pack ice. Limited to 4 images here from my 15 image series. I might upload more from the series at a later time.
