The Living Desert Sculpture Park is Broken Hill City Council’s contribution to the environment, for the protection of native flora and fauna and for the better management of our ecosystem and sustainability. It is also a place that offers some truly spectacular views of the surrounding area and magnificent sunsets.

Machattie Park in Bathurst, NSW, is one of those places you find when you are not really looking for it, and what started as a walk to pass time, turned into hours of photography! On a trip out to Orange to shoot amazing sunsets, that did not happen, we stopped off in Bathurst on the […]

On last year’s Outback adventure, we had a couple of nights in Narrabri on the way back to Sydney, and one of the attractions with photo potential was the Pilliga Sandstone Caves in the Pilliga National Park. Our two night stay in Narrabri was a reprieve from the two days on the road to get […]

The Menindee Lakes near Broken Hill in NSW are one of the most spectacular natural sights I have seen. By day they are nothing special, come sunset and the burst of colour as a backdrop to the stark trees protruding out of the water creates a surreal sight. If you ever venture out to the […]

Famous for its role in silver mining history and on the silver screen, the historic town of Silverton perfectly captures the charm of the Outback while feeling instantly recognisable – possibly because it has starred in many iconic Australian films. Silverton is a small village at the far west of New South Wales, 26 kilometres […]

On the out west to Broken Hill, we spent a night in Griffith and upon arrival found ourselves at the IOOF Park looking at the sculptures as the sun set. Heading out to Broken Hill for our ‘coming out of lockdown’ break, we spent the evening in Griffith, arriving at sunset and spent the afternoon […]

Pennington Bay sits on the south coast of Kangaroo Island en-route to the Dudley Peninsula. It is accessible via an unsealed road that runs off of Hog Bay Road. It is a stunning bay that is famous for its surfing. Sunset here allows for some beautiful images to be captured, and great drone footage. Pennington […]

The Sea Cliff Bridge has been used in many Australian TV commercials since it was built, and it is a fairly spectacular sight when heading out of Sydney to the southern coast. The Sea Cliff Bridge, together with the adjoining Lawrence Hargrave Drive Bridge, are two road bridges that carry the scenic Lawrence Hargrave Drive […]

An early morning photo shoot starting at 5:30AM in the hope of a spectacular sunrise resulted in a sunrise with virtually no orange/red glow as hoped, but still resulted in some interesting colour thanks to the lights reflecting off the water.

The National Museum of Australia brings to life the rich and diverse stories of Australia through compelling objects, ideas and events, but at night, it makes for a great photo opportunity. Having visited Canberra on many occasions, myself and a few mates decided to tackle the difficult task of capturing the National Museum of Australia […]

After a day out shooting with a mate in Canberra, we decided to try and get a sunset shot over Lake Burley Griffin. As we drove around to where we wanted to shoot it was clear we had little time left to grab some shots. We quickly grabbed our gear and ran for the water’s […]

The Sydney Opera House is most often photographed during the day light hours and it looks spectacular. I think it takes on a more spectacular presence at night when the white ‘sails’ are lit and they emerge from the dark of night. I shot all of these images with low ISO settings (50-64 ISO) and […]
