Cradle Mountain Photography Tour & Workshop

October 17, 2022
I run highly personalised Cradle Mountain photography tours to Tasmania’s most celebrated natural icon for one or two guests on demand. The tour is a 2 night/3 day trip to one of Tasmania’s most popular landscape photography locations. What do we photograph on one of these tours? Upon arrival we will visit some of the...Read More

Liffey Falls, Great Western Tiers

October 5, 2020
Water has to be my favourite subject to shoot. For a dynamic moving image, nothing is better than fast flowing creeks and waterfalls, and the added plus to Liffey Falls is the number of cascades. The main fall itself has a couple of tiers with numerous rocky ledges, dispersing the falling water into dozens of smaller cascades. The...Read More

Moonrise Cradle Mountain

January 28, 2019
Moonrise at Cradle Mountain over the peaceful buttongrass moors. January 2019 brought with it a “supermoon” – a full moon which is apparently a little larger than usual. I don’t think its really that noticeable really, but it gets a few headlines 🙂 I was up at Cradle Mountain over those dates and captured an...Read More

Dusk at the Cradle Mountain Boatshed

August 21, 2018
A major highlight of my Cradle Mountain photography workshops is sunrise and sunset down at Dove Lake. On my last trip back in June, the mountain had a nice layer of snow, and dusk at the boat shed brought some very subtle and muted colours. These shots were taken with my 10 stop ND filter...Read More

Enchanted Walk Cradle Mountain

October 13, 2017
Enchanted Walk Cradle Mountain – in the snow! Most visitors to Cradle Mountain, particularly those staying at the Cradle Mountain Lodge would have given the short Enchanted Walk a go. It is an easy boardwalk alongside the Pencil Pine Creek, and generally only takes around 20 minutes. Last month, however, due to the huge amount...Read More

Sunrise at the Vale of Belvoir lookout

October 12, 2017
The Vale of Belvoir lookout is a short drive out of Cradle Mountain and on a fine day is one of the few places outside the National Park that you can actually get a glimpse of Cradle Mountain. During September 2017 there were huge snowfalls across western Tasmania, including Cradle Mountain. So much so, that...Read More

Dawn shoot on the Pelion Plains

July 25, 2017
On my recent trip down the Overland Track I stayed a couple of nights at the “Palace” – the rather large hut on Pelion Plains. The plan was to capture some nice sunrise and sunset shots across to Mt Oakleigh. I have climbed Mt Oakleigh before – but never shot it! After arriving in mist...Read More

Barn Bluff

July 14, 2017
Of my many trips to Cradle Mountain I was yet to climb Barn Bluff, something I was keen to rectify on a recent walk down Tasmania’s Overland Track. Barn Bluff is first spotted just beyond Marions Lookout in the distance beyond Cradle Mountain. As a day-walk, it would be a very long day and only...Read More

Devils in the snow Cradle Mountain

June 15, 2017
Recently I had the rather unique experience of photographing the Tasmanian Devils in the snow at Cradle Mountain! My Cradle Mountain photography workshops all include a visit to the wonderful devil conservation park Devils@Cradle, and in early May our visit co-incided with a few flurries of snow. While snow might have made our sunrise sessions...Read More

Marakoopa Cave at Mole Creek

January 24, 2017
The Marakoopa Cave, along with the nearby King Solomon Cave, is one of the main public access caves in the Mole Creek Karst National Park. The caves have formed in the limestone bedrock over millions of years and are intricately lit up and access is only available on a guided tour arranged at the nearby...Read More

Cradle Mountain Dove Lake – From the Vault

December 23, 2016
This is a selection of photos of the place I clearly visit the most, Cradle Mountain. Usually on one of my photography workshops but of course in my own time too – there is so much to see and do at Cradle Mountain. Short walks such as the Enchanted Walk and Weindorfers Forest are a...Read More
