A beautiful morning at Milford Sound, made even better by a rare White Heron / Kōtuku. #landscapephotography #landscape #naturephotography #nature #scenery #newzealandlandscape #newzealand #PhotographersofBlueSky #milfordsound

Early dawn at Roy's Peak, Wānaka. The sun hadn't risen yet, but the colours were starting to appear. It was shaping up to be a great sunrise. #landscapephotography #landscape #nature #scenery #newzealandlandscape #newzealand #PhotographersofBlueSky #wanaka #sonyalpha #photography #royspeak

On a winter morning at Milford Sound, the beach was frozen and there was a fog on the water. #landscapephotography #landscape #naturephotography #nature #scenery #newzealandlandscape #newzealand #PhotographersofBlueSky #milfordsound #sonyalpha #photography

Photo sequence from a moonset at Lake Wanaka, just before dawn. These were taken from Mount Iron in Summer, so an early start was needed! #landscapephotography #landscape #newzealandlandscape #newzealand #PhotographersofBlueSky #wanaka #moonphotography #moonset #sonyalpha #photography

I submitted 3 framed prints into the 2026 Wānaka Arts Labour Weekend Exhibition, and I was fortunate enough to be chosen as the winner in the Photography category, for "High above Lake Matheson". At the gala night, and in a surreal moment, I was called up to the stage to be awarded. #photography

Taken on the same day as the photo of the Wānaka tree in fog that I posted yesterday. The fog and cloud had completely cleared, so I took some shots of the Milky Way over the pines at Eely Point. This is a composite of four 13 second exposures. #milkyway #astrophotography #sonyalpha #photography

There was thick fog and covering the lake, and visibility was low. I happened to be walking past the tree as the fog really closed in, so I thought it was worth a quick shot. #landscapephotography #thatwanakatree #wanaka #photography #sonyalpha

I hiked up Mount Iron before dawn to find that Albert Town down below was hidden in fog. As the sun came up, some tree tops cast shadows in the fog. It was a brief window, then the light became too harsh, and the effect disappeared. #landscapephotography #newzealand #fog #sonyalpha #photography

Light rays over Lake Wanaka as the sun was getting low in the sky. #landscapephotography #landscape #naturephotography #nature #scenery #newzealandlandscape #newzealand #PhotographersofBlueSky #wanaka #sonyalpha #photography

Rainbow over the peninsula, Lake Wānaka. Seen from an early morning walk up Mount Iron. #landscapephotography #landscape #naturephotography #nature #scenery #newzealandlandscape #newzealand #PhotographersofBlueSky #wanaka #sonyalpha #photography

The Matukituki Valley, which somehow feels close and far from Wānaka at the same time. #landscapephotography #landscape #naturephotography #nature #scenery #newzealandlandscape #newzealand #PhotographersofBlueSky #wanaka #sonyalpha #photography

Watching the Blood Moon descend behind Mount Roy, Wānaka. Just before sunrise, Sept 2025 #landscapephotography #landscape #naturephotography #nature #scenery #newzealandlandscape #newzealand #PhotographersofBlueSky #wanaka #bloodmoon #moonphotography

"Lighting the way to Glendhu Bay" The sun goes down over Lake Wānaka, lighting the way to Glendhu Bay. #landscapephotography #landscape #naturephotography #nature #scenery #newzealandlandscape #newzealand #PhotographersofBlueSky #wanaka

Catching the last light on a winter walk near Wanaka last year. #landscapephotography #landscape #naturephotography #nature #scenery #newzealandlandscape #newzealand #wanaka #PhotographersofBlueSky #sunset #mountains

"High above Lake Matheson" Alone at a popular lake, no one else is around to see the last light hit these mountains. #landscapephotography #landscape #naturephotography #nature #scenery #newzealandlandscape #newzealand #lakematheson #PhotographersofBlueSky #sunset #mountains

A partial rainbow in the clouds as the rain was coming down lake Wanaka from the Matukituki Valley. It was very fleeting, a few seconds after I took the shot, it was gone. #landscapephotography #landscape #naturephotography #nature #scenery #newzealand #rainbow #PhotographersofBlueSky

In awe. Southern Lights over Wānaka, from Mount Iron. #landscapephotography #landscape #naturephotography #nature #scenery #newzealandlandscapephotography #newzealandlandscape #newzealand #wanaka #southislandnz #aurora #auroraaustralis #PhotographersofBlueSky

Diamond Lake, Wānaka. This was from September last year, it was still wintery at that point, but the track was far less icy than it had been a few weeks before. #landscapephotography #landscape #naturephotography #nature #scenery #newzealandlandscape #newzealand #wanaka #PhotographersofBlueSky

The rocks seemed to mimic the mountains in the background, with the reflections on the lake leading the eye towards Mount Aspiring. #landscapephotography #landscape #naturephotography #nature #scenery #newzealandlandscape #newzealand #wanaka #southislandnz #monochrome #PhotographersofBlueSky

A dreamy scene at Lake Hawea, before sunrise, with a strangely pink sky. I needed a long exposure as the light level was still quite low, and a telephoto lens. #landscapephotography #landscape #naturephotography #nature #scenery #newzealandlandscape #newzealand #bluehour #PhotographersofBlueSky

Early morning at Waterfall Creek. The lake level had recently gone down, so the rocks were very slippery! Somehow I didn't fall in the lake. #landscapephotography #landscape #naturephotography #nature #scenery #newzealandlandscapephotography #newzealandlandscape #newzealand #wanaka #southislandnz

Submerged tree in Lake Hawea, June 2025. It caught my eye a few weeks prior, so I came back when the lake was calm. #landscapephotography #landscape #naturephotography #nature #scenery #newzealandlandscapephotography #newzealandlandscape #newzealand #wanaka #lakehawea #southislandnz #monochrome

Looking back towards Wānaka from The Neck, getting distracted by viewpoints at the start of a road trip to the West Coast. #landscapephotography #landscape #naturephotography #nature #scenery #newzealandlandscapephotography #newzealandlandscape #newzealand #wanaka #southislandnz

Milford Sound in 2022. Lots of rain and the mountains were hidden by low cloud, great conditions for the waterfalls though. #landscapephotography #landscape #naturephotography #nature #scenery #newzealandlandscapephotography #newzealandlandscape #newzealand #milfordsound #southislandnz #monochrome
