Blue Hour, Lake Bled, Slovenia
A serene nocturnal scene unfolds over a still lake, where the softly illuminated church rises from the island like a beacon of quiet faith and mystery. The surrounding mountains rest under a veil of clouds, their silhouettes blending with the deep indigo tones of the water and sky.
Buttermere Autumn Tranquility, Keswick, Cumbria, England
This morning, there were no significant clouds to catch the rising light, but the way the light illuminated the fells and Derwent Isle was simply superb. With a very light wind and a calm lake, I found myself leaning towards a symmetrical image rather than a ‘big sky’ perspective. It took several attempts to capture […]
Dead Horse Point, Utah, USA
The sunrise view from Dead Horse Point reveals the extraordinary palette of colours in Utah’s red canyons. The first rays of dawn delicately illuminate the Colorado River winding below, highlighting the depth and structure of the monumental rock walls. The soft light imbues the landscape with warmth and tranquillity, creating an almost painterly atmosphere. It’s […]
The Morning Eye, Plage de l’Est, Montreal, Quebec, Canada
On a night in October 2025, I checked my weather application to see what conditions to expect for sunrise the following day. The forecast suggested sunny weather with some clouds. In September, I used the Photographers Ephemeris App to identify “Plage de l’Est” as an ideal location for capturing the sunrise. You can refer to […]
Mount McDowell Reflection, Maricopa County, Arizona, USA
I dropped my camera on a brick walkway in the morning, and this was taken. By some stroke of luck, it landed on the lens cap. The lens also had a screw-on ND filter. I think those two together mitigated the potential disaster. I was expecting the worst. But, there seems to be absolutely no […]
Revealing Storm, Culnaroc, Isle of Skye, Scotland
One of my favourite shots from Skye and a totally unplanned image as far as location goes. The scene here you could see happening with the mountain coming in and out of view for a few momemts with the low cloud moving left to right constantly changing the scene, eventually the mountain appeared and all […]
Ora Station, Akitio, Tararua, New Zealand
Commissioned to create a book about this station and its owners, there were many vantage points to explore in search of light. This was no exception; the early morning light illuminated the valley beautifully.
Monsoon Season Lightning Strike, North Rim, Grand Canyon, Arizona, USA
In August 2024, I attended a workshop focused on photographing lightning strikes during the monsoon season in the Southwest United States. I was excited and well-prepared for this natural spectacle, equipped with all my gear, including a lightning trigger. We started our journey at the South Rim of the Grand Canyon and then traveled to […]
Hoar Frost, Mount Vector, Pian Grande, Castelluccio di Norcia, Italy
One of the few times the weather smiles on me. Pian Grande completely covered in snow with a truly stunning sunset.
Lonely Tree, Fuchiade, Soraga di Fassa, Italy
A solitary tree stands on the slope, facing the immensity of the Dolomites. Its fragile presence contrasts with the ancient stone, yet together they weave a quiet dialogue between solitude and eternity. In this meeting of light, silence, and scale, the tree becomes both witness and storyteller — a reminder of resilience in the vastness […]
