A peaceful morning on the beach at sunrise. Summertime and sunrise here in Queensland is awfully early 😴 but very worthy once you’re up!

Early morning light. #photography

Sunrise approaching. Peaceful, still and quiet as the light of the day begins to illuminate the scene. #photography

Lagazuoi views. Spectacular views from the peak of Mount Lagazuoi, the impressive mountains and ranges in all directions. Hope you enjoy... #photography

Hello Blueskiers... Sorry I have been missing many posts, plus not uploading recently. I am far away from home and unfortunately been quite sick. So the devices have been sitting alongside me idle in my hotel room. Hopefully back soon! 🤞🤞🤞

Incoming. On the beach is where you can find me. Regardless of the weather or light... ☕ #photography

Emerald Forest. Back to nature, ever so good... #photography

Jacaranda season is upon us here as springtime takes hold. #photography

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

After sunrise at the Church of the Good Sheperd. A bit of snow had fallen overnight and greeted me when I arrived at Lake Tekapo. #photography

Ice on Ellesmere. A -30°C day on Ellesmere Island and it was cold... #photography

Vanishing point. Some Monday monochrome moodiness for today’s viewing. #photography

Te Motu-o-Kura / Bare Island Some waterside long exposure, for your weekend viewing pleasure. Hope it's a good one... #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

Stormwater. Discharge drains at sunrise on the beach. A long exposure version... #photography

Jetty time. A little time by the water for this Sunday. Hope you enjoy... #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

Time we spent

Sunrise on the beach. A favourite place of mine close to home. Last Sunday morning with camera and coffee. Watching the sun come up and another day commence... #photography

The Forest of the Dancing Trees, the Netherlands.

Riverfire. This weekend Riverfire was held in Brisbane. I avoided the crowds along the river and the city. I shot all my images from a little further away. Here we go... #photography

A still moment in Milford. Milford Sound looking its reflective best on a very calm day. #photography

Revisiting the Great Ocean Road and its wonderful views. Long exposure taken as sunrise approaches. #photography

Winter Chapel. I see the South Island of New Zealand has copped a late wintery blast of weather this week. ❄️ Stay safe peeps, Spring is now virtually around the corner… #photography

Rising sun. #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

Returning to a favourite location for a jetty shot. Hope you enjoy… #photography

Winter light. The low sunlight illuminates the foliage by the lake. #photography

Here is another composition of the solar eclipse taken just a few minutes before the image from my previous post… 📍Ještěd, Czech Republic

Springtime is getting closer downunder. #photography

The Golden Divide. Among the dunes at sunset always delivers… #photography

Busselton after sunset. The last light of the day along the lengthy Busselton jetty. #photography

The ‘Buck Moon’ at the Kelpies in Falkirk. The full moon last night rising between Baron and Duke 🌝🐴🐴 #falkirk #scotland #kelpies #fullmoon

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

Another day commencing. On the beach, jetty in focus and here we go... #photography

Mountain Ridge. Up around 3,000+ metres high. Around the southern NZ Alps again... #photography #nature #landscapephotography

Some more intertidal views from 1,000 metres above. I enjoy how different days over this region the scene and tides never display the same. Beautiful nature. #photography

7 minutes of bliss… Another sunrise on the beach. #photography

Tidal Alchemy. Discharge flows near the salt drying pans. #photography

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

Another wonderful image by Paul...

Drying salt. More salt farm viewing from above. Hope you enjoy… #photography
