The for past few years I have been entering Capture Magazine's Emerging Photographer of the Year. Each year I seem to make it into the top 10 or 20 but I've never won. There are some truly amazing looking

I'm not a sunrise kind of person. If I'm at home the last thing I can be bothered doing is going out and shooting a sunrise. I am a morning person, but only to eat breakfast. When I'm out on a photography

Gorgeous light bathing the granite boulders at Whisky Bay in Wilsons Promontory National Park. After returning from my long hike across the Prom, the last thing I wanted to do was walk some more. I was

I finally got around to spending some time on my own photography. I decided to go to Wilson's Promontory National Park and spend a night camping on the remote east side. To get there though was a 16km

One of the lesser known spots along the Great Ocean Road is the Baker's Oven. Although with today's society I wouldn't be surprised if it is renamed to the Drool emoji or the Vomit emoji. This is a long

In this fast pace world of social media and staying fresh and on trend, calling something old could mean a few months ago. The photo below is ancient in that sense, as it is from 3 years ago! However,

One more shot from my night out. Heading out for my own photography has been quite rare of late. It is something I want to change and make more time for. And then I'll be able to Steem more. I'll have

Is there any major city in the world where the residents and visitors don't complain about traffic? Is there any city that just runs smoothly at any time of the day? I know some cities have amazing public

Melbourne is by no means tropical or arid, but the summers here can really be energy draining. Do you prefer the summer heat or the winter chill? Also...2 posts in one week! I must be crazy! Photo from

Watching the sunrise colours bloom over the limestone Great Ocean Road cliffs is fiercely mood lifting. Capturing that essence in a photo ensures you can take that feeling with you wherever you go. I do

A feeling of isolation was always present during my travels of Madagascar. Not only because it is an island in the southern hemisphere that is about as far away from most of the "developed" world

It seems every time I shoot star trails I stick to a recipe of facing south and shooting wide. So I thought I'd change things up a little. So for this shot of Horse Head Rock I shot more zoomed in (35mm,

With my last couple of posts being about new compositions in Melbourne, I was struck with a desire to revisit one of my favourite photos and compare the differences in how I approach a well known scene.

Last night I went out to the city for a spot of photography. After a workshop the previous night I stopped by a location I thought might be interesting and scouted it out to shoot when the timing was better.

The sand dunes at Wilsons Prom, called "Big Drift" are a great place to explore. However, short distances in this place can be very taxing on the body. Trying to walk up the steep sides of dunes

Or even, what is your ideal breakfast? Mine would have to be a high quality hotel buffet breakfast. I usually wake up hungry in the morning and would eat so many different things if I didn't have to worry

Just a bit of fun with this one. I was recently at the sand dunes "Big Drift" at Wilsons Promontory National Park and noticed this little scene that reminded me of photos from Namibia. 500px

I do enjoy making star trails photos. lining up the South Celestial Pole isn't always easy as we don't have a (easily visible) star to line up where everything will rotate around. This is taken at Pyramid

One of the things I've been shooting that I had not expected to be shooting when I started photography but enjoy doing is shooting fireworks. shot last night at a new Melbourne estate of Woodlea during
