This is Rod Irvine, one of the best blokes you could ever hope to meet. He's been incredibly generous with his New York (photography locations) knowledge, but more than that, he's a great mate.

We've had an epic week (so far) and tonight we had dinner in the Minetta Tavern, a New York legend.

He's never that keen on getting his photo taken, but i always grab a few for the record. This little phone pic will be a fav in the future......

Tomorrow, Rod Irvine, Alan Low and Nick Polianlis all head off to Iceland for ‘Landscape 23’. Or ‘Landscape #10’ if we count how many years we have been doing it.

This is the 10th ‘tour’ (maybe we should get ribbons?), and we are going back to where we started, Iceland.

Along the way our little group has grown, with Alan (now a very accomplished photographer) joining 3 or 4 years back, to a mahoosive 4 this year with the arrival of Nick. I’m not sure he really knows what he has let himself in for, with all the silly early mornings, and hoofing it around in the dark to find that optimal perspective before sunrise, but off we go, and all the way around this time.

The weather looks, well, like 🇮🇸 weather. Eight seasons in one day, with a fair few snow dumps.

Standby for ‘Iceland take 2’ pics soon 🙂

Morning world….

this is where the family are waking up this morning. Kaythie Reid and i were in SA 21 years ago, but that was a very different experience. We were in very different places, seeing the ‘real’ SA. Places like Tsala Lodge weren’t on the agenda. We are surrounded by nature here…. with all the sights and sounds (broken temporarily by the sound of my drone!)

Beautiful, peaceful, restorative…

Playing with the drone on a recent tour of Scotland. Beautiful morning light over Dunnottar Castle.

Hi everyone.

If anyone is planning a wedding next year and hasn't yet booked their photographer, I'd be delighted to have the opportunity to discuss your wedding.

I only photograph a few weddings each year and each one feels special to me, from the first conversation to the last hour spent polishing the finished images.

Get in touch, or please share if you have a friend getting married.

Beautiful Bagan, Myanmar. From my trip there in December 18.

I love the way this image just radiates warmth... taken at dawn. That was an early start :)
