I’m a full time landscape photographer based in Brisbane Australia, my work is featured in various publications, as well as cards, posters etc. I travel most of the year capturing new images. I travel by 4WD sleeping mostly under the stars, as I believe you have to be there when the magical light happens. I use 6×17 medium format panoramic and 5×4 inch large format film cameras for most of my work, as well as full frame digital. To see more of my work please visit www.gallerym-australia.com
