A unique view of where we live
Lensing Light is my photographic journey to connect people with their place. A way to let people see the place that they live – their street, their suburb, their city, state, nation – and ultimately the planet that we all share, in new ways. We live in a time of climate change that may literally […]
Kings Cross in Sydney is famous – or more rightly infamous as a night spot. Once the recognised red light district of the city, changes in laws that limited night clubs trading hours and the decriminalisation of sex work in New South Wales generally have changed Kings Cross for ever. Gentrification. Beautification. Money. All of […]
The north shore of Sydney harbour is peppered with beautiful places, but Mosman has to be one of the more picturesque, with the Sydney Harbour National Park, Taronga Zoo, and Balmoral Bay being some of the best spots. I like to go to Balmoral Beach for fish and chips some times, or as a starting […]
Rushcutters Bay, its park, and surroundings are some of the most beautiful spots in Sydney. I recently did a scouting shoot around the area and captured some images that I thought were worth sharing. Scouting Rushcutters Bay The Overlook – Rushcutters Bay Whenever I visit a place, I try to look for a view to […]
Capertee Valley is the widest canyon in the world. Running from Lithgow in New South Wales out to Rylstone in the Central West of the state. It is vast with so many aspects that you could spend your life exploring it and still not find every nook and cranny – let alone photograph them all. […]

It was my first time on the island – located off the coast of South Australia, south of Adelaide at the mouth of St Vincent Gulf. It is breathtakingly beautiful, a subtle landscape of vivid […]
Louee is a small town (population 815 in 2006) in the Central West of New South Wales. I love the rolling landscape of the region (close to Mudgee) and Louee’s railway line and trestle bridges make for good photographic subjects. Cox St Railway Trestle Bridge Although it has reached the end of its life and […]
Homebush Bay was once a ship-breaking yard and a number of wrecks still remain, slowly being reclaimed by the mangroves and the water, rusting quietly. What Once Was – the SS Ayrefield The SS Ayrfield was a steam collier, brought to Homebush Bay in the early 70’s for breaking she now lays abandoned and grounded […]
An arboretum is a botanical garden devoted to growing trees for conservation, scientific research and educational purposes. Pronounced arr-boor-eetum. From the national arboretum canberra website Cloud Land I am fascinated by the ever changing beauty of clouds – and Canberra, often puts on a great show. When I visited the Arboretum the sky was strewn […]
This is a collection of photographs of Sydney City that I have taken at various times over the last few years. I add new images from time to time as I take them. Gothic Night This panorama was shot around midnight, early in 2019. It was a misty night and the city looked amazing from […]
