This site is but a small snippet of my work.

Through many years travelling and developing my photography skills, through ever diversified outback and urban locations, a passion for capturing my surrounds grows from of my love for the Australian landscape. I seek out small, unseen details. Or fleeting moments of the wider landscape, amazing because it was able to be captured at just the right moment in time. I hope you enjoy my photos.

Mining era relics.












Mostly lying around the north of Broomfield and Creswick (north of Ballarat), are prominent reminders of the 1800's gold-rush and settlement of the region. I am not sure how, using 1800's technology, they moved so much rock and earth. Some of these mullock heaps are have many hundreds of thousands of tonnes of material, which all came from below ground in a vertical shaft. Today erosion is slowly making off with the piles but are still an amazing sight on the landscape. And I am pretty happy with how these all turned out, all handheld, and yet another win for having a CPL in the kit.

Dangerous, but attractive old bridge.







Between Creswick and Clunes in Western Vic lies a region hugely influenced by the discovery of gold in the mid 1800's. Searching for more old mines I discovered this old bridge. To be honest i don't know how people are even allowed to go near it, but alas you can still drive across it....... despite huge cracks and buckled concrete pillars. It was built in 1900...... Before cars were ever invented to cross it....
