For some reason, OM-System has scheduled a product announcement for the same day as Apples iPhone event. I am far more excited about a new camera for a system I don't use, than I am for a folding iPhone

IN MOTION I'm not a star model, but I'm trying to experiment with my Milky Way photography. Lit by my iphone, my trusty Forester and I put in 1000km on this Milky Way chase. Carcoar Dam (NSW) #milkyway #astrophotography #nightscape

Sunset at The Rock Lookout in Mulgoa, NSW. One of the benefits of living at the foot of the Blue Mountains is being able to zip down to this spot when the light is good #sunset #landscapephotography #localphotographer #bluemountains
The Nepean river cuts through a densely forested gorge during twilight. The sky displays soft blue and pink hues with wispy clouds, while dark green trees cover the steep hillsides on both sides of the reflective water below.

Been busy with life, but I managed to sneak out yesterday and catch the sunset in my local neighbourhood. #sunset #landscapephotography #localphotographer
A steel electrical transmission tower with multiple power lines stretches against a soft sky during golden hour. The scene features warm peachy-pink and blue-gray tones with wispy clouds, creating a serene atmospheric mood as geometric power lines contrast with the organic cloud formations.Power lines stretch diagonally across a deep blue twilight sky with birds flying in a V. A bright moon or light appears in the upper right against the gradient blue-to-purple evening sky.Steel transmission towers rise against a vibrant sunset sky painted in blues and purples.

We all worry that Meta and the other tech firms know too much about us… and then they ask a childless middle aged man if he’s interested in necklaces and parenting 🤷

I've seen some great aurora photos from the solar storm on the weekend, but I can't help but think that people were rushing their edits out the door: please level your photos! Once I've seen a slanted horizon, I can't actually see the subject of your image 🙃

Native Australian plants don't change colour for autumn. It's common to travel into the Blue Mountains to see the season change. #bluemountains #landscapephotography #autumncolours #fallcolors #rural

Looking to my catalog for inspiration for a shoot in Kirribilli this evening. I don't have many shots, which is kind of liberating! Here's a nice bit of afternoon light on the ferris wheel at Luna Park #lunapark #sydneyphotographer

Can everybody hurry up and support JPEG XL? It compresses amazingly, supports HDR, and I’m now doing all my exports from Lightroom in it. At least I can add photos to my iCloud account 🙄

Our planet looks like ✨this✨, and you tell me I am supposed to work 9-5 every day until I am too old to truly get out and experience it? I don't think so.
A collage of four photos that I have taken. At the top is a volcano erupting at night with the Moon directly over the lava fountains. Below that is a waterfall, taken from behind the water, looking out at a colorful sunset. Below that is a massive supercell thunderstorm at night with a tornado beneath the structure and lightning on both sides. Below that it Shiprock seen right at sunrise with colorful skies and a reflection of the rock features in a large puddle in the foreground.

Aurora, somewhere in the highlands of Finland. I think the light pollution actually adds to the photo in this case #aurora #borealis #landscapephotography #astrophotography #northernlights #lightpollution #nightscape
A wide angle photo of the Aurora, taken in Finland. Ice and snow are in the foreground. Power lines in the mid-ground, and light pollution on the horizon.

I try not to think in terms of good or bad light in #landscapephotography as I am convinced there is a scene or image for any type of light. But sometimes is worth getting up for #sunrise to catch the first light of the day! #ocean #sea #sunrise #madeira
Sunrise on a rocky coast with a stricking sea stack on the right hand side. Colourful clouds fill the horizon.
