Grey skies, slightly off on the tide or no swell at all for a few waves.

Last weekend I took a road trip north based on a favourable weather forecast in that direction. As is fairly typical they had it wrong and by the time

Stunning sunrise color behind the Waiake Beach Torr on Auckland's North Shore

You can't shoot a decent long exposure in a marina full of boats...or can you. This morning was so calm that I managed to squeeze out this shot t

I love the effect that a 30 second exposure can have on a photograph, especially when you have large thick clouds moving very quickly as in this shot.

Cloud cover catching the setting sun over the converging lines of Okahu Wharf just off Auckland's Tamaki Drive.

Just after sunrise the sun disappeared behind cloud cover, creating beautiful muted tones and silhouetting a solo craggy tree. In the distance tiny sh

A picturesque little stretch of river not far below Kitekite Falls above Piha on Auckland's West Coast.

It's amazing how a little mist can completely change the feel of a photograph. I love the 'Lord of the Rings' feel to this one.

There is something magical about a crisp misty morning. Everything looks different, delicate and ethereal. Ordinarily we get mist in Auckland around a
