A few weeks ago, while getting myself ready for working night shift, I looked outside the window early in the morning, and the sky was filled with so many different colours of incredible oranges. I thought to myself, “Holy crap shooting the Edmonton skyline right now would be wicked!” I loaded up my gear as quickly […]

These photos were taken the next morning, after shooting for the “Wharariki Holiday Park Star Trails” shot. Needless to say, I did not get a lot of sleep that night. The photo series here shows the different variations of light you can see during sunrise. The first photo here was taken about 20 minutes before the […]

These two photos were taken on D’Urville Island, an island separated from the mainland by the French Pass. Apparently there are glow worms here, and if you visit at night you can see them hanging off the rock wall glowing like tiny lanterns. I was here shortly after sunrise and there was a nice soft […]
Since you all have the story behind these images, I will leave out the “behind the scenes” info. If you want to have a quick read and see the previous shot, head over to the “Band of Fire” blog post. The photo below was taken a few minutes after “Band of Fire” and shows how […]
This image was taken during sunrise, the morning after “Wellington at Dusk”. I had woken up a little late and could see the sky already lighting up. Once again, I had to hastily grab all my gear and run across a bunch of rocks to get to this spot. By this time, around the middle […]
After the long flight to New Zealand, on beautiful V Australia, we landed at the airport around 5 pm (If any of you have never had the chance to fly with them, you’re missing out!) We then picked up our sweet 1984 Mitsubishi Camper-van (see photo at the bottom of this post). After getting a few supplies for […]

Well after a long absence, I am back to processing photos and blogging! We have been super busy trying to get a place to live before the 18th of March, and that has taken up a lot of our time. I’ve finally begun to start going through all my 5000+ photos from our trip to […]

Just a little post here as it’s been a while since I last blogged. Still slowly going through photos from September and sitting on them for a bit before posting. This image was taken just off Highway 40 in Kananaskis Country. It is a 5 shot blend using Exposure Fusion in Photomatix. I often shoot […]

The weekend of September 25-26, I met up with fellow photographer Luke Austin to shoot somewhere in the Alberta Rockies. It was his last week in Canada and I was itching to shoot fall colors in the mountains so we decided to meet up in the Banff area. I tried leaving Edmonton early enough on […]
