Skogafoss, here shown at sunrise, is one of the most majestic and impressive waterfalls I have ever seen and photographed. 8 seconds exposure with my Hasselblad X1D, my Hasselblad XCD 30mm and my Formatt-Hitech Firecrest Ultra filters.

I was real eager to get this new lens on and get shooting, but obviously I have to learn the lens first, This is one of the shots I really liked from the sunset we watched in the mountains.
Val d'Orcia, in Tuscany, is quintessential and iconic Italy. I am fortunate enough to go multiple times a year to photograph there, and each time is an amazing experience for me. A 23 seconds exposure at sunset with my Hasselblad X1D, Hasselblad XCD 45mm and my Formatt-Hitech Firecrest Ultra...
Vestrahorn, in Iceland, is a truly amazing place. A classic, I know, but a classic I am never tired to photograph, like here on a very cold March sunrise. 13 seconds with my Hasselblad X1D, Hasselblad XCD 21mm and my Formatt-Hitech Firecrest Ultra filters.

When I first switched from the Sony a7ii back to Nikon and picked up the D850, I knew I wanted to trial it somewhere awesome, I let it sit in the box for days before we took a trip to Krushuna Falls where I first got to use it and see what it could do. I've shared some of those shots previously...

This waterfall was probably in the top 3 of my list to visit here and I was sure pleased that we decided to make it the first stop on the long weekend vacation. Not the easiest place to get to too and we had to scramble down some pretty steep side slopes to get down but it was really worth it.
I love the spring and I love travelling around to the many different waterfalls we have here.
Sorry I've not been around or posting for a while but between work, sleep and shooting I've not had much time to edit and catch up with things here. I picked up a NiSi HUC IR ND64+CPL so been having...
Hopefully I'm not sickening you all with these shots; Footsteps into the beyond..
I couldn't figure out what made these prints in the snow, the better half suggested a rabbit, but I'm not convinced... a fox?

We'd just driven 40 or so minutes and I was hungry for a cigarette before we started trekking to our chosen spot, we pulled up in the car, stepped out and marvelled at the sky immediately. As we were driving we couldn't see the stars, as we climbed we thought the morning would be a washout...
So I took a break from editing yesterday to go get the new lens. Having another crack at a couple of shots again today, this is another one from the other morning.. Sunrise just peeking in on the horizon and the city glowing beneath the clouds. The stars were pretty much invisible to the naked...
So we headed out to the mountain in search of sunrise, and it did arrive again, however, as we walked through the dark, I knew thee galactic centre had visibility until just before 06:00. As we marched through the 6ft of snow I stopped to marvel at the sky, stars everywhere... I set up and...
So I was revisiting some of the first shots I took with the D850 and decided to re-edit a couple more in line with my current editing style..
I can't really decided which crop of this shot I prefer, what do you prefer?
Any other C&C welcomed as always, And yes, it's a shame about the...
So, Last sunrise post for a while, Promise :D
As the purple and pinks died out and the sun breached the mountain top, the clouds thickened, I was just about to pack up my gear and leave when I turned and saw the light rays beginning to fill some of the mist in the valley, as the cloud was...
So, after suffering from cabin fever and growing anxiety from not being able to get out and shoot, we decided last night we would getup today and head into the mountain for the sunrise. A spot we've previously visited.
Waking at 05:30 on Saturday ain't easy but we grabbed a coffee and jumped in...
So I've been editing some older stuff as I've not been able to get out shooting lately which is kinda annoying me a lot!
I liked this shot of a sunset from last October but I couldn't decide on which crop I preferred. C&C is as always welcomed on all aspects, not only the crop...
I can't think of any reason to stop shooting beautiful winter snowy landscapes, There's just something about them. Again this was shot in Vitosha Mountain.

As we hadn't really planned to travel to Pleven but was a favour for the family, we were not sure what or where to shoot. We took some advice and headed up to a lookout across the 2 Dams of Kaylaka, as you can see they're completely frozen.. As were my hands when I was done shooting!
This is a...
So, I was working on this edit when I thought it was a nice idea to try this in Black and White for the challenge. It was quite well received but my main aim to to edit in full colour. So here it is in colour, which one do you prefer?

Rising at 5:45am on a cold cold Sunday morning was an absolute treat as always! We drank a coffee, jumped into the car and headed up into the mountain to catch the sunrise from a viewpoint I've seen but not yet shot from.
Arriving just on the cusp of the blue hour, I jumped out of the car and...
On a trip into the mountains a couple of months ago, we headed to one of the beautiful mountain lakes, when we arrived the sky was flat and grey, but as we hiked around and relaxed a while, the sun broke through, it was not the light I wanted, But the stillness of the lake and the light did make...

As the fall fades into winter, and it's been raining and snowing for the last 4 days, I'm looking back at warmer mornings with beautiful sunrises over the city.

This is Cold River, an offshoot of the bigger Deerfield River near Charlemont, in the Berkshires. Right by the Mohawk Trail campground, and the trailheads of a few trails that we hiked.

As the fields have been harvested and we were travelling to a gorge in the north, I stopped to smoke a cigarette and wanted to get a few shots of these bales and this landscape we were passing through. I've done a basic edit on this one but I'm undecided if I like it, Be interested to hear any...
A place I had seen before and always wanted to shoot. Now, without any filter kit (Still saving after the D850 splurge), it was challenging. We got up at around 5am which is always fun whilst on vacation AND it's your birthday. Anyways, we headed to the rocks and I setup this shot, watching...
Now, I know I've not been around on this forum for long, or indeed for a while, but I have been shooting. Had a lot go on personally over the last 12 months and I just kinda shut down.
Switched up from my D7000 > moved to a Sony A7ii for like 6 months, sold the lot and re-invested in a D850, I...
Seljalandsfoss is one of the most famous and photographed waterfalls in Iceland, most known for being photographed from behind the water. Since I like to go to Iceland in winter, both for my Workshops and for my personal work, that is never possible: the access to the waterfall's back is closed...

Dear forum users,
after years of up and downs, the passion for photography is back as it never was. Hopefully here to last. Is great to be out there in the nature again and create some original work.
The spark that ignited everything is the concept, the slow pace, the limitations, and the...
I stepped outside before heading to bed and noticed how clear the sky was. I ran inside, grabbed the camera and tripod.
I haven't done any milky way shots with the XT2 yet. I was surprised how well it actually handled it, if I had a faster lens like the XF16mm 1.4, I could've got better shots...

I don't typically bring my camera with me when I walk on this path because I mainly do it for exercise (I usually run it) but since I already went for a run earlier in the day I decided I'd just take a nice evening stroll and brought my camera along. Didn't take too many pictures but I ended up...
