I think it may not be too late to shift from Landscape to Mountaineering… lately ive been thinking about climbing Mt Cook and Everest in the future.

The highest peak in New Zealand, Aoraki/Mt Cook is truly Himalayan in size. It is an impressive and massive peak with five sides, six faces and seven main ridges. The mountain has a vertical rise from valley to summit of over 2500m.

this is a perspective blend taken from the hooker valley track.

Found this beautiful hidden waterfall while bushwhacking with friends Michael Bollino and Brian Kibbons. It’s getting harder and harder to find good moss in the popular shooting spots, so I have been venturing out to a bunch of hidden and hard to get to spots recently.

Here’s one from my recent trip to the PNW. Would have been great if this beautiful cloud stuck around for the sunset.

Should have some dates for next year’s workshop in the next week or so. As always, thanks for taking a peek.
