Photographing the worlds highest mountains was a true physical challenge with rewarding results.

Sitting amongst these huge peaks really alludes the sense of scale to how big these mountains truly are. Many days can be spent approaching single peaks giving plenty of opportunity to capture them displaying their range of moods dictated by the weather.

Mountain photography provokes a real sense of emotion which will pull many photographers back to their foothills to witness them time and time again.

Travelling through Scandanavian countries has always been a huge drawcard for myself. I have always found  something entertaining in the idea of removing one self from their home and travelling to a place as far away as possible on the planet.

The vision of new and exotic landscapes brings excitement and mystery to new photographic adventures. Witnessing snow packed villages, towering fjords, thundering waterfalls and icebergs barely scratch the surface to the photographic potential that  lays ahead in the worlds most northern countries.

The best time for photography in European cities is definitely the sunrise. Its a good time to sit back in darkness waiting for the light to pinch the horizon knowing I am in one of the busiest places on earth with no one else around.

Listening to the cities slowly come to life with traffic, pedestrians and modern hustle and bustle delivers prime opportunities to take images before the crowds settle in. Not much beats taking that perfect exposure then retreating to a nearby cafe to enjoy a warm espresso and bakery delight.

One country. Many visits, more to come. 

Seeing all there is to see can take a lifetime.

I have visited many different states in the USA and have always been rewarded with amazing imagery. The diversity throughout North America will surprise most photographers with its changing landscapes as the miles tick over.  Driving as always been the best option giving the advantage of stopping frequently to admire the landscape before moving onto the next location. 

I have been photographing Tasmania now for many years and I still get surprised at just how much of this Island State I haven’t seen. At times I think to myself I have seen all there is to offer photographically, but there is always something new to see.  Weather it’s a familiar location with a different weather pattern passing over or an unexplored track leading to an unfamiliar landscape.  Tasmania has many iconic landscapes such as Cradle Mountain and Wineglass Bay but there are many more rewards to be seen getting off the beaten track. A real advantage about seeing many of these sights is the fact that they are all so close together on this small island leaving more time for exploring and witnessing what makes this island truly unique from others.

Arrive at airport, clear customs, collect bags and load into a motor home. It’s as easy as that. A real bonus was that people drive on the same side of the road as back home. Reflecting back on my first trip to New Zealand’s South Island still leaves me in awe at its diverse and breath taking scenery I encountered. I found the best way to see the country was to grab a road map, draw a big circle around the island covering the places I wanted to visit and start driving.  A lot of people have always commented to me after seeing New Zealand that it reminded them of my home state of Tasmania. After seeing for myself I had to disagree to this as I found New Zealand to be a land of its own.  Its towering pointed snow capped peaks, wide glacial river systems, majestic sounds and rugged coastlines really made New Zealand its own. Having seen just a glimpse of the South Island, I feel that more time on another trip is necessary to help capture another glimpse of its beauty.

Great Southern Land

I travelled to Patagonia during the off season with much reservation. Would I be rewarded with incredible and moody images or be left empty handed at the cause of bad weather. Many stories can be read giving good advice, bad advice and everything in between on the best time to travel. My only advice is to simply ‘just get there’. 

I got wind, snow, rain and sun all in the same day. Wind was a constant. The only thought left in mind when leaving was ‘when will I get back here’.
