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

This sunrise was shot on Monday 7th January 2019, my first one for the year. So not only was this a very special start to the week but it was a magic

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.
