Japanese Maple Tree, Oregon

‘Hidden’

The setting sun bursts through the leaves of this Japanese Maple Tree in Portland, Oregon. Some of the trees were still greener at this stage while some had turned. With the sun back lighting the leaves they appeared even more yellow which worked in my favour.

Antelope Canyon Photograph

‘Arcadia’

Antelope Canyon in northern Arizona is a spectacular place to photograph. I was thrilled to have the opportunity to visit these slot canyons and witness the spectacular glow that is found within them. ‘Arcadia’ captures the variance in colour temperatures within the canyon that are seen more dramatically by the camera as the intense warm light reflects off the background walls and the foreground rocks appear in much cooler light. A stunning location that I do hope to visit again one day!

North Beach Photograph

I had this moody photograph of North Beach along Perth’s coastline in mind. I captured this and it had the exact water movement that I felt was important to the shot. I then returned the following night and set up the same composition however got a much more colourful sunset. At first I thought that would be great, but after looking at the files I realised I preferred my original idea of a moody scene and the colour from the second night just didn’t do much for me.

Multnomah Falls, OR

This photograph of Multnomah Falls of Oregon’s Columbia River Gorge is a very simple clean black and white rendition of these massive falls. These particular falls are popular among tourists. I avoided capturing the upper portion off the falls to avoid the bridge. This simple composition is of the lower section of the falls. Columbia River Gorge is filled with stunning waterfalls tucked away in the beautiful rainforest. Such a spectacular place that just amazed me!

Bear Creek, Colorado

‘Felicity’
Bear Creek photographed as the final light of the day reflects off of the distant cliff face, creating a warm glow throughout the scene. I love to revisit this waterfall just outside of Morrison Colorado and am sure I will again next time I visit Colorado.

‘Run To Forever’

This photograph was captured along the City Beach coastline in Perth, Western Australia. Summer had arrived very suddenly and this day was a perfect reflection of what summer is to me living in Australia. I had been visualising this shot for a while and although a simple composition it took quite a number of attempts. These clouds were perfect and the water was stunning. The yacht was just a bonus!

Upper Antelope Canyon Glowing

Photographing Antelope Canyon is an experience I will never forget. Driving across Arizona I felt like a kid at Christmas. I was so excited to witness the magical glow found in these slot canyons. This photograph was made in Upper Antelope Canyon. I was primarily photographing the light beams that this canyon is known for, however this composition could not be passed up!

Lower Antelope Canyon

‘The Light Above’

After a couple of attempts at getting exactly the composition I had in mind I got it. Spending two days capturing the colours, glowing light, and rock formations that are Antelope Canyon was an absolute blast! I wish I could have spent more time there but I have no doubt I will return!

Japanese Maple Tree

‘Shaded’

With my camera underneath this Japanese Maple Tree I was able to capture the leaves that appear to glow in the ambient light after the sun had disappeared behind some hills. The branches of this tree reaching out provide a great contrast to the bright greens of the leaves and grass around it.
