Potts Mirror - Lake Clearwater, Canterbury, NZ. In moments when the high-country wind drops, Lake Clearwater becomes a perfect canvas, mirroring the twin peaks of Mount Potts. #photography #landscape #nz
A single wake traces the stillness of Lake Clearwater beneath Canterbury's golden high country. #photography #landscape #nz #reflection
Gold Shore, Blue Range - Lake Clearwater, Canterbury. One morning from several spent in the Ashburton Lakes. The full story is coming later this week. #photography #landscape #nz
Ridge in Fog - Te Mata Peak, Hawke's Bay, NZ. The fog was thick enough that morning to swallow the valley entirely, but the ridge held its shape above it, catching the first warm light before anything below had a chance to. #photography #landscape #nz
I almost missed this one — it sat buried in my library for months while I worked through everything else from this year's trips. It's from my home ground. Rhythm of the Ridges - Tukituki Valley, Hawke's Bay, New Zealand #photography #landscape #nz
New Article Live: One Morning at Lake Tūtira — New Zealand Landscape Photography in the Fog jos-buurmans-photography.offprint.app/a/3mow6e2vcx... #offprint #photography
I opened the motorhome door planning to walk to my sunrise spot. Didn't get further than the lake's edge. Poplars in Blue - Lake Pearson, Canterbury, New Zealand. #photography #landscape #nz
The Arch and the Grace - Lake Tūtira, Hawke's Bay. A quiet, fog-filled morning at Lake Tūtira. Beneath the weight of ancient branches and a heavy mist, a lone swan finds its mirror in the still water. A moment of undisturbed symmetry. #photography #landscape #newzealand
Not Alone - McMurdo Sound, Ross Sea, Antarctica. Two volcanic islands rest in a sea of gold, beneath layers of light and mountain peaks. Look closely: there are orcas in the water and birds in the sky. This landscape is alive. #photography #landscape #antarctica
Living Ice Landscapes – Ross Sea. Adélie penguins on cliffs of ice — so small they read first as marks, then as movement, and only finally as life. Scale is everything in Antarctica. From the upcoming Ross Sea series. 🧊 #photography #landscape #antarctica #rosssea #penguins
Taking a break from the ice today. Autumn is doing its thing in Hawke's Bay — mist in the hollows, gold on the hills, and two trees catching the first light of the day. Glad to be home. #photography #landscape #nz Early Gift — Hawke's Bay, New Zealand
The Eye - Southern Ocean near the Balleny Islands, Antarctica. #photograpy #landscape #antarctica #ballenyislands #icebergs
Last week on Te Mata Peak — and a reminder of why I love calling Hawke's Bay, New Zealand home. 🌿 Morning mist, golden light, and a ridge that never gets old. Moments like this remain rare, even after many visits. #photography #landscape #nz
Stillness Beneath Mount Herschel - Cape Hallett, Antarctica. Calm settles over Cape Hallett as Mount Herschel is mirrored in still, ice-laced waters—its presence softened into quiet symmetry. #photography #landscape #antarctica #rosssea
Wings beyond the Cliffs - Campbell Island, New Zealand. A Southern Royal Albatross glides effortlessly along the wind-sculpted cliffs of Campbell Island, its vast wings held steady as it rides the rising air above the Southern Ocean. #photography #landscape #nz #subantarctics
Leading the Way - Snares Islands, NZ. A Snares Crested Penguin leads a small group across rocky coastal ledges, weaving through clumps of bull kelp as they make their way to the sea. #photography #nature #penguins #nz
