In case you are bloomscrolling…this photo will probably take some time. 😉 A cute little field of lupins 🥰😂.

Somewhere in Iceland…again. June 2022.

For #MountainMonday I have a rather old photograph I made way back in 2011. The lesson from this one was to wait until the sunset is absolutely, positively, finished before heading back to the car. This one may have involved some running. :)

The Coast Mountains of British Columbia are one hell of a special place!

A stormy day at Milford Sound in New Zealand

Fog envelopes an alpine basin, transforming it into something surreal. Every time I turned my head, it looked different.

Taken on an incredible afternoon in the alpine of #BC.

'Witches Lair' (2023)

"Raking Light", Drakensberg 2024. We had risen in the dark to make the short but steep walk up to this view point on our final morning of a 75km traverse of the berg, and were greeted to views with such depth and light of a wonderful quality. The winds were strong but nothing could distract from the immensity of our surroundings.

When I was taking this photo a guy passed and said 'You missed it!' (referring to a point perceived as the best of the bluebells) to which I smiled and said 'Did I?'.

'Hanging On'

A beautiful, large ancient oak tree with some remnants of autumn colour on a cold, frosty winter's morning. I've got many images of this tree, but I hope one day to have a set of nearly identical images through the different seasons.

Wishing everyone peaceful and happy holidays! Thank you so much for following along for what has been an incredible year (I'll reflect more on 2024 in another post). For now, here are 4 new winter images from Scotland's Ancient Caledonian Forest. Enjoy :)

I can't believe I've almost missed #WaterWednesday again. When I first started photography I often got called the #Waterfall guy because it's all I shot. Waterfalls became my way of learning #Composition in our local #Forest.

While the waterfall provided and obvious subject I could practice my framing, leading lines, and usage of foreground and mid ground elements to draw your eye to the main body of water.

The incredible (and often overlooked) mountain landscape of the Isle of Harris, Scotland. This place is rugged and unvisited, partly because the beaches of the island steal away attention and partly because of its unforgiving character. Many of these areas are fairly unexplored in terms of photography and I'm excited to spend a bit more time doing just that over the coming years.

Happy Friday everyone! And this means, some positive seascape from my happy place :) Enjoy.
