Hi there - let me introduce myself by sharing a photo of the view from Te Mata Peak, which is located in Havelock North, Hawke’s Bay, New Zealand. That’s a 10-minute drive from where I live and you can find me there often with my camera.

Wharariki Beach, New Zealand — wild, remote, and endlessly changeable 🌊

A place where light, wind, and tide never tell the same story twice.

The early morning mist transforms the Tukituki Valley, as seen from Te Mata Peak, into an otherworldly landscape.

Bare Essentials - Hawke's Bay, New Zealand.

A moody close-up of the trees at the base of Te Mata Peak. The early morning fog obscures the land underneath and behind the trees, stripping the landscape back to a minimalist scene.

Trees and Green Hills. And a few sheep because we're in New Zealand.

Golden Crowns in Fog - Hawke's Bay, New Zealand.

Veiled in morning mist, the trees wear crowns of gold, their fleeting brilliance turning fog into poetry.

Golden Crowns in Fog - Hawke's Bay, New Zealand.

Same photo. Three totally different moods. 🤯
Want to know the trick? It’s all in Lightroom’s Tone controls — and I’ll show you how.
