Happy Holidays & Farewell 2011

December 20, 2011

I was out in Melbourne town last week shooting some timelapse videos with my brother Shane, and came across a Christmas projection on St Pauls cathedral. When captured as a timelapse the projection looked even better, so I thought I’d post it to my website and make a Christmas card out of it… I started freelancing full time around March 2010, so 2011 was my first full year flying solo. This year saw a natural progression from working in-house at read more…

Photography of New Zealand

December 1, 2011

Recently I returned from a brilliant trip to New Zealand where I travelled from North to South in 3 weeks, passing through a lot of must see sites and a few lesser known places. As an Aussie you’re constantly reminded how beautiful and abundant in nature NZ is, so it’s a place of wanted to visit for a long time but neglected due to being too similar culturally. After just a few hours in the country it was obvious how read more…

Photography of Top End Australia

July 12, 2011

Last month I managed to escape the cold of the Melbourne winter and head up to the Northern Territory. It’s a place I’d wanted to visit for a long time, and having family up in Darwin gave me the push and excuse to visit this part of Australia.

The trip exceeded expectations and read more…

My brother Shane Northey has been shooting time lapses over the past 5 years and has captured some amazing scenes in the past including amazing nature scenes in central and northern Australia, and urban activity around Hong Kong. His recent trip to Central America adds to his already impressive collection and read more…

Photography at Wilson’s Prom

April 30, 2011

For those who don’t know, Wilsons Promontory is a national park in south-east Victoria. It has an incredibly diverse and unique landscape, so there’s no shortage of subjects to photograph. Given the texture and lighting provided by the landscape I thought it was a good chance to put together a series in black and white. I’ve stuck to colour in recent years, so it was good to return to black and white and made me remember how much I love read more…

Some Great Animations April 2011

April 19, 2011

A couple of months ago I posted some great motion graphics, animations, and short films from Japan. I thought I’d keep that up and share some great creative pieces that I’ve come across over the past few months. Thanks to a bunch of other sites and blogs out there for posting some great content.

January 13, 2011

What better place to be over the summer than down by the beach. I have uploaded a short new gallery to Flickr of some shots taken recently at Cape Paterson in Victoria, Australia. Most shots are largely textural and showcase the amazing natural features along the Victorian coast. View slideshow on Flickr
