This is an early evening shot I took on Christmas day 2006 down at one of the many small beaches along the Mount Eliza stretch of coast.
-
The fog that rolls in over the land from Western Port Bay (Victoria) is just wonderful. Here, I took a shot along the boardwalk over the mangroves of Bittern. It was an incredibly frosty morning and the sun was barely able to show its self through the fog.
-
I’m not actually sure why I called this ‘Memories of Yesterday’. It is probably to do with the ghostly shadows of a man and his dog on the jetty. Perhaps I could have called it a man and his dog and let the viewer figure out why. In any case, I like the softness and almost pastel colours of this image. It was shot down at Sorrento (Victoria) one evening.

I knew that there was going to be a full moon rising on the evening that I shot this, but as the day grew to a close, the clouds came rolling in. By the time the sun was down, there was very little clear sky left. Lucky for me the moon, when it did eventually rise, managed to peak through a gap and show itself. The time of night, along with all of the other elements really made the blues come to life.

Gunnamatta Beach is a long stretching surf beach on the southern coast of the Mornington Peninsula. It has high sand dunes, long stretches of sand, and very rugged outcrops of rock. Most times of the year it’s a quite place where you can go to get away from things. This is Gunnamatta beach one autumn morning.

The Dandenong Ranges (Victoria) are host to many of Melbourne’s most wonderful gardens, landscaped in ways you aren’t likely to find anywhere else in the region. During Autumn, some of these gardens really show themselves off and are a place perfect for quiet reflection and to take in all the beauty of nature.
-
Sometimes the sky lights up in ways you least expect. As was the case on this morning. When I got there, the clouds seemed to be everywhere, and the worst place to have them for sunrise or sunset is on the horizon; and there was plenty on the horizon. But as I waited, the clouds slowly thinned and drifted, moving further away from the horizon at a fast rate of knots. The result was a spectacular and bright pre-sunrise lightshow.
-
I shot this from Point Richards on the Bellarine Peninsula (Victoria) looking across Corio Bay. From all of my visits to ‘the other side’ of the bay, I’ve come to realise that the cloud formations are often very different to the Mornington Peninsula (where I spend most of my time). So far, and probably extremely luckily for me, I have never been disappointed with a sunrise or sunset shot taken on the Bellarine.
-
I shot this photo earlier this year down at Cape Schanck on the Mornington Peninsula (Victoria). It’s part of a new personal project I’m working on. It was one of those mornings where everything just came together nicely. Of all the photos I’ve ever shot, this is one of my favourites.
-
On a moody Spring evening, dense but scattered clouds roll across the bay threatening to open up and pour on anything that falls their path. The setting sun casts its light across the clouds making them glow in a way that makes them appear to be on fire. The stunning colour of the sand comes up through the shallow water in unusual blues and greens while at the same time mixing with the oranges and reds of the sky.

I thought I’d try something a little different. I don’t normally shoot anything abstract or parts of objects, I usually like to zoom out a capture the whole subject in one shot. But on this one particular evening, as the sun was creeping over the horizon, it lit up the clouds that had been dumping lots of rain on us. I stood outside in awe of all the shapes and cloud types that weren’t so obvious when the sun was covered by them, but now, as the sun pushed it’s light through a gap, and with all of it’s wonderful colour, it revealed the stunning shapes of the underbelly of the storm. The colours, shapes and shadows encouraged me to grab my camera, and thus I shot just bits a pieces of the clouds that were around me on that night, and as the sun went further down, the colours changed. This is one image from 5 that are in my gallery. You may enjoy them or you may not, but to me they are a reminder of that amazing display on that one evening.

The more I look through my photographs; the more I see just how much time I’ve spent at this location. This is a nice warm Spring sunrise over the Cameron’s Bight jetty looking across to Arthurs Seat.

Standing atop the cliffs at Mornington Peninsula’s southern most tip, the Cape Schanck lighthouse is a warning that this piece of coastline is not to be messed with. It’s not easy getting to this point of coast when there is very little light and an unpredictable tide. Lucky for me the sky provided a nice show of colour to make the effort worth it.
-
This is another case of right place right time. I normally check the tides to see where they will be at sunrise and sunset, but as my fiance and I were staying near Geelong for a few days, I didn’t bring a tide chart with me and so I had to take guesses as to where it would likely be. Anyway, at the last minute I decided to head down to Point Lonsdale to take a few shots of the lighthouse and to my delight the tide was out and slowly creeping in. By the time I finished shooting, I was walking through water to get back to the shore.

After shooting the early light of the morning down at Cape Schanck I thought I’d take a quick shot of the sun light reflecting off the large boulders in this little cove. I love the warm colours and shapes of wet boulders in the sun. If you ever go down to this place when the tied is high and the weather a little on the wild side, the massive waves that come crashing in to this little space throw these boulders around making an awesome rumbling sound. A must see if you live close enough to the Mornington Peninsula.

A few years ago, Mildura hosted the World Hot Air Balloon Championships. I headed up there for a few days to enjoy the event. Travelling with the competitors was great as I got to see how quickly they measured the weather conditions and set up their balloons. About 80 balloons were raised at about the same time, many of them side-by-side like this, in a rush to take advantage of the best wind conditions. Not only were they pushing against each other on the ground, but the balloons would also bump each other in the air, it was really an amazing sight.

I shot this just this morning along an eastern beach of Port Philip Bay, Victoria. It was a mild morning, and despite my fears of an overcast bland sky, the clouds unpredictably opened up and displayed a wonderful array of shapes and layers. Although I enjoy this photo in colour, it doesn’t really share the same quality and impact that the monotone version displays. This was my first photo shoot for 3 months, and will be part of a small series I will be exhibiting at the end of the year.

In recent weeks, the sunrises and sunsets have been quite impressive. Here is a shot I took around Port Philip Bay during one cool morning. The colours were vibrant and the clouds slick and layered. It was shot as an HDR image.

If you ask anyone who knows me, I’m a very passionate and patriotic Melbournian. I love the fact that we have the best sporting, art and food cultures in Australia, the vibe of the city, the day life, the night life and the mix of 19th Century and cutting edge architecture. Melbourne is the place to be.

Description to come

While juggling my camera and an umbrella in very strong winds, I managed to shoot this at sunset last night. The waves were absolutely bashing the jetty, lifting the boards right up as the waves forced themselves underneath. The timbers were moving so much from the wind and waves I was sure it was going to finally fall to the elements.
