Vestrahorn – Capturing Iceland’s All-Season, South-Eastern, Viking Wonder
Exploring the incredible (and lesser-visited) Stokksnes peninsular to photograph the iconic Vestrahorn mountain range in all weathers on the south-east coast of Iceland.
Norway’s Lofoten Islands – Stunning? Yes. “Untamed”? I’m not so sure.
It’s one of landscape photography’s “big ticks” – that shot of the fishermans cottages in the shadow of Lofoten’s mountain range in Hamnøy; one of the archipelago’s tiny islands connected by bridges that span for miles across the region. I have to admit, it’s been a place I’d been wanting to shoot for a while, so when the opportunity arose to test some new equipment in low temperatures, it was pretty high up there on […]
Cold as Ice : An Amazing Winter in Iceland
Iceland – a country of stunning beauty, dramatic views and amazing natural resources. In some ways, photographs of the huge vistas that presented themselves before us can never really show the true nature of the vast spaces and rugged landscape – but in others, they also capture a stillness that is easy to miss when you’re stood in huge, freezing, gusts of arctic wind… With glaciers all around, the sheer scale is something that must […]
Digital Photographer Magazine – Long Exposures
Featured in issue 141 of “Digital Photographer” magazine – my long exposure shots from the Northern Lights above Tromso in Norway during 2012.

My visit to view the aurora borealis didn’t go without the odd hiccup or two – as I wrote at […]
Chasing the Northern Lights – Aurora Borealis from Tromsø, Norway
This is a photograph I never thought I’d get – not only because I hadn’t planned a trip to Norway (the Northern Lights / Aurora Borealis had never been something I thought I would see for myself) – but also on the first dark Friday night there, having spent 4 hours freezing by the side of a lake, they showed absolutely no sign of appearing! That’s right – less than 30 minutes after getting to Tromsø, […]
New kit additions, Northern Lights, CES and some travel!
It’s been a strange few weeks really – following Christmas. First off, I’ve finally got my hands on my Canon PowerShot S100 – the replacement to the S95 with which I shot my Thailand images. Amazon UK really let me down on that one, but luckily their counterparts in the US managed to get one in time for me to do some playing around to see what it can do 🙂 Next up, I’ve not had […]
