On a summer hike near Wānaka I noticed a tree that reminded me of a hammock, over a dry riverbed. A deceptively calm scene that must have been created by violent forces, now likely gone. #landscapephotography #naturephotography #newzealandlandscape #PhotographersofBlueSky #sonyalpha #photography

"Chosen" This photograph was taken on an early morning walking through a beech forest in Fiordland, New Zealand. As soon as the sun was high enough, light rays broke through the mist creating a beautiful scene. #landscapephotography #naturephotography #nature #newzealand #photography #sonyalpha
"The Tarn". Taken on the Hump Ridge Track. #landscapephotography #landscape #naturephotography #nature #scenery #newzealandlandscape #newzealand #PhotographersofBlueSky #humpridge #sonyalpha #photography

Early dawn at Roy's Peak, Wānaka. The sun hadn't risen yet, but the colours were starting to appear. It was shaping up to be a great sunrise. #landscapephotography #landscape #nature #scenery #newzealandlandscape #newzealand #PhotographersofBlueSky #wanaka #sonyalpha #photography #royspeak
On a winter morning at Milford Sound, the beach was frozen and there was a fog on the water. #landscapephotography #landscape #naturephotography #nature #scenery #newzealandlandscape #newzealand #PhotographersofBlueSky #milfordsound #sonyalpha #photography
Photo sequence from a moonset at Lake Wanaka, just before dawn. These were taken from Mount Iron in Summer, so an early start was needed! #landscapephotography #landscape #newzealandlandscape #newzealand #PhotographersofBlueSky #wanaka #moonphotography #moonset #sonyalpha #photography
I submitted 3 framed prints into the 2026 Wānaka Arts Labour Weekend Exhibition, and I was fortunate enough to be chosen as the winner in the Photography category, for "High above Lake Matheson". At the gala night, and in a surreal moment, I was called up to the stage to be awarded. #photography
Taken on the same day as the photo of the Wānaka tree in fog that I posted yesterday. The fog and cloud had completely cleared, so I took some shots of the Milky Way over the pines at Eely Point. This is a composite of four 13 second exposures. #milkyway #astrophotography #sonyalpha #photography
There was thick fog and covering the lake, and visibility was low. I happened to be walking past the tree as the fog really closed in, so I thought it was worth a quick shot. #landscapephotography #thatwanakatree #wanaka #photography #sonyalpha
I hiked up Mount Iron before dawn to find that Albert Town down below was hidden in fog. As the sun came up, some tree tops cast shadows in the fog. It was a brief window, then the light became too harsh, and the effect disappeared. #landscapephotography #newzealand #fog #sonyalpha #photography
Light rays over Lake Wanaka as the sun was getting low in the sky. #landscapephotography #landscape #naturephotography #nature #scenery #newzealandlandscape #newzealand #PhotographersofBlueSky #wanaka #sonyalpha #photography
Rainbow over the peninsula, Lake Wānaka. Seen from an early morning walk up Mount Iron. #landscapephotography #landscape #naturephotography #nature #scenery #newzealandlandscape #newzealand #PhotographersofBlueSky #wanaka #sonyalpha #photography
The Matukituki Valley, which somehow feels close and far from Wānaka at the same time. #landscapephotography #landscape #naturephotography #nature #scenery #newzealandlandscape #newzealand #PhotographersofBlueSky #wanaka #sonyalpha #photography

"Lighting the way to Glendhu Bay" The sun goes down over Lake Wānaka, lighting the way to Glendhu Bay. #landscapephotography #landscape #naturephotography #nature #scenery #newzealandlandscape #newzealand #PhotographersofBlueSky #wanaka

A beautiful morning at Milford Sound, made even better by a rare White Heron / Kōtuku. #landscapephotography #landscape #naturephotography #nature #scenery #newzealandlandscape #newzealand #PhotographersofBlueSky #milfordsound
"High above Lake Matheson" Alone at a popular lake, no one else is around to see the last light hit these mountains. #landscapephotography #landscape #naturephotography #nature #scenery #newzealandlandscape #newzealand #lakematheson #PhotographersofBlueSky #sunset #mountains
A partial rainbow in the clouds as the rain was coming down lake Wanaka from the Matukituki Valley. It was very fleeting, a few seconds after I took the shot, it was gone. #landscapephotography #landscape #naturephotography #nature #scenery #newzealand #rainbow #PhotographersofBlueSky
In awe. Southern Lights over Wānaka, from Mount Iron. #landscapephotography #landscape #naturephotography #nature #scenery #newzealandlandscapephotography #newzealandlandscape #newzealand #wanaka #southislandnz #aurora #auroraaustralis #PhotographersofBlueSky
