Photographer - landscapes in remote and cooler climates are my passion. But I also find time to shoot closer to home when I can. No AI, just lens, light and intent... CraigMcGowanphotography.com

A little coastal lighthouse time. Along the Oregon coast is full of stunningly beautiful nature and scenes to immerse yourself in. Occasionally there is the added human element as presented today. Hope you enjoy. #photography #landscapephotography #lighthouse

That Tree. Early in my reconnection with photography and my first digital camera I shot the Wānaka tree. Sadly these days it possesses less limbs than in this image, but continues to sit proudly in the water. The LE image was taken in the last light of the day. #photography

Wildlife down south. I am a landscape photographer. However, sometimes when capturing inanimate nature scenes, wildlife gets in the way. Kudos to those that do capture wildlife imagery, and do it well. Here are but 4 images from 1000's of wildlife shots captured on this trip. #photography

Sand, sand, sand… Everywhere I looked, in every bit of clothing, in every piece of kit and somehow, even into my food and drink. But how good was it to be in the dunes as the sun moved across the sky and settled below the horizon. #photography

Tea room. Chilling in the tea room. A genre of photography way outside my level of expertise. Congrats to those who do this and do it well. #photography

Glacial Wall. A substantial glacial wall abuts the water edge on a still, foggy and very atmospheric morning. Persisting with panos on social media. #photography

Light is at its most powerful the moment it first breaks through the darkness. The mesmerizing shapes and textures of Namibia's dunes come to life as they are touched by the first light of day. #100%human #photography #nature #naturephotography #bluesky #landscapephotography #landscape #sunrise

There is so much fleeting beauty to the world of mountains, lasting seconds before it's gone forever. Far above, barely visible, the peak of Paine Grande in Torres del Paine is transformed into a moment of utter beauty! #photography #naturephotography #landscapephotography #nature #bluesky #art

A little fella. Not to be disparaging to the Gentoo penguin community, but these guys whilst animated, were nowhere near as impressive as their larger versions in Antarctica. I know nothing about them or photographing wildlife for that matter, but here we are 🐧 Hope you enjoy... #photography
