peeking over the edge of a building for this aerial shot. i love the simplicity.
Season's greetings all! Wishing everyone peace and joy and may 2026 be the best one yet.
The icing on the cake after hours of shooting the dunes during a windy afternoon. The rim lighting from the setting sun helped define all the different layers.
I hope you enjoy!
Something I have given a lot of thought over for quite a long time now is the role of the rules of composition.
For those of us in the northern Hemisphere the days are getting progressively shorter, colder and searching interest outdoors can be futile.
I have reason to travel to Yarrawonga in northeast Victoria on the Murray River regularly now, and while the landscape on the flood plains is flat, the skies can make up for the lack of dramatic sc

I was experimenting with the newer capabilities of Luminar NEO's "Restoration" function, which repairs dust and scratches and also colorizes (you can choose either or both).
A small local port in Macau. Light was a bit too sharp, but the port was very calm and inviting and who doesn't love boats?
No "challenge", just strolling around last Sunday from 8 to 12 in the morning. Enjoying being out, diving into the grassland. No one waiting for me, nothing to think about...

Deep Into the Night - Orion Nebula
First time trying something beyond photographing the Sun and the Moon, so this is experimental for me.
All of these are combinations of 25-30 sequential images brought into Photoshop as separate layers. I auto-aligned #1, #3, and #4 before auto-blending them. #2 and #5 I only auto-blended.
