The idyllic Koufonisia is one of the smallest and least developed of the Cyclades Islands. The Island is lined with white sand beaches and the clearest waters I've ever seen.

Naxos, the largest island in the Cyclades and home to this massive ancient marble quarry.

To give you some idea of the scale, here is a closer look, note the digger.

Sarakiniko the most photographed landscape on the Island is a brilliant white beach that I stumbled upon whilst exploring the island. Its lunar landscape, twisted rock formations, caves, and clear blue waters make for an amazing place to both relax and photograph.

The Cyclades, Greece are a picturesque group of Islands home to the world famous and absolutely breathtaking Santorini. This volcanic Island juts out of the clear azure Aegean Sea, with colourful sculpted buildings perched on its peaks. Santorini's natural and man-made beauty make for endless photo opportunities, and is a must for any visitors to Europe.

Here are my entries for this years Epson International Pano Awards, fingers crossed they do well...I could do with my own printer.

Hi guys,
As you may know I'm currently on a three month trip overseas travelling through Europe experiencing the culture, and taking some photographs along the way. Now half way through the trip I have visited England, Scotland, Greece (Santorini photographed above), Italy, and Croatia. Up next is Slovenia, Austria, Spain, Italy again, and maybe France. I have posted a couple preview images for your viewing pleasure with many more images to come on my return to Australia. I've also shot some video so look out for that. If you are looking for a great Christmas gift I will be back online at the start of November, and honouring all orders well before Christmas. I also have many photography course dates available and course gift vouchers if you are looking for something a bit different. For now, here are some images for you, enjoy.

Church of Panagia Paraportiani is an iconic 15th Century church located in the heart of Mykonos, Greece. Photographed at twilight, the painted paving stone found throughout the island lead the eye into the frame and up to the church.
