A little front-yard mycology: glowing toadstools, vivid Fly Agarics, delicate gills and an earthstar releasing its spores — all photographed while experimenting with light, colour and fungi close to home.

Mother Nature was running a little late, but even with more buds than blooms, Auburn’s cherry blossoms offered plenty of inspiration for soft, layered, high-key and quietly elegant images.

Come and meet Parramatta Park’s Grey-headed Flying-foxes — beautiful, charismatic bats with an important conservation story to tell.

Explore the wonderful architecture of Barangaroo, NSW — from bold buildings and reflections to colourful bobbing buoys, especially with Kathy Wallace showing you where to look.

A portrait shaped by shadow, texture and a touch of mystery. With her face almost concealed beneath an extraordinary sculptural hat, the image becomes less about identity and more about mood — theatrical, enigmatic and quietly dramatic.

A one-on-one architectural photography workshop in Sydney opened my eyes to an exciting new genre. Exploring the city with photographer Kathy Wallace, I discovered how buildings can be transformed into abstract compositions of shapes, lines, reflections, textures and light

An evening of night portrait photography in Sydney, experimenting with city lights, reflections, dramatic compositions and the wonderful creative possibilities of photographing after dark.

Part 4 - Veins of the Riverbed.

A twisting, tree-lined watercourse sweeps across the earth below, its curves revealed through rich greens, oranges and golden tones. What began as a simple aerial photograph slowly transformed into one of my favourite abstract landscape images to date.

Part 3 - The Shape of Water

Unexpected purples, rich earth tones and organic tree textures transformed this Kimberley aerial into a vibrant abstract landscape, revealing colours and patterns hidden within the land.

Part 2 - Carved By Water

Strong pinks, deep blues and textured dotted trees transform this Kimberley aerial into a richly coloured abstract interpretation of the landscape — organic, expressive and full of movement.

Part 1 - Abstract Aerial Landscapes

Flying high above Lake Argyle and the Bungle Bungles in a tiny aircraft, I began transforming flat, underwhelming aerial photographs into richly coloured abstract landscapes. These posts document not only the finished images, but also my evolving creative process as I explore colour, form, light and abstraction from the air.

On the remote shores of South Georgia, elephant seals clash in dramatic battles while penguins stand quietly nearby, witnesses to one of the planet’s last great wildernesses. Yet these remarkable animals now face an invisible threat: avian influenza, which has devastated wildlife populations across the region.

The sea lions of the Galápagos Islands thrive within one of the world’s most carefully protected environments. Through tightly controlled tourism and strong conservation measures, these islands remain a rare example of people and wildlife successfully sharing space. This series celebrates not only the beauty of the sea lions, but the hope that thoughtful conservation can preserve wild places for generations to come.

In the grasslands of Botswana, a cheetah mother and her cubs represent both the beauty and fragility of the wild. This photographic series explores survival, vulnerability, and the importance of protecting the landscapes that future generations of wildlife depend upon

As Sydney, Australia grows upwards and outwards, the habitats that support native wildlife are steadily disappearing. This photographic portfolio of backyard lorikeets is a reminder that conservation is not only about remote wilderness — it is also about protecting the everyday nature that surrounds us before the backyard falls silent.

One raw file. Two completely different interpretations.
A look at how editing choices shape the story we tell.

Two dead trees stand on a ridge in Romania, long after the forest has moved on.
Seen as sentinels, the image became an exercise in minimalism — reducing colour and distraction until only form, light, and presence remain.

Rising from the forest in eastern Bosnia, the Monument to the Battle of Sutjeska is one of the most striking examples of Yugoslav brutalism. This post looks at the monument’s history and considers how restraint, weight, and material informed the photographic approach.

Have a look behind the scenes at photographing Whales in Tonga, and what I learnt from this.

By popular request, I’ve added new images to my humpback whale gallery — captured in the tranquil, turquoise waters of Vava’u, Tonga.
