Momiji 🍁🍁 That’s how the Japanese refer to maple leaves and I’ve been taking in the beauty of them for the last week. It’s just so beautiful at this time of year, everywhere you turn is another vibrant scene. I’ve had some down time while I enjoyed spending time with friends so I have loads of shots to share, hope you won’t mind me playing catch up! . . . #canon90d #canonaustralia #visitjapanau #visitjapanjp #momiji #fallcolors #maple #autumnleaves #autumninjapan

Requesting permission for fly by ✈️🗻 EPIC travel moment this morning when my @japanairlines_jal flight buzzed Fuji-san!! I lucked into a beautiful clear morning but I was in that window seat deliberately! Japan Airlines has a great page on their website where you can see if your flight will have a Fuji view and if so, what side you need to sit on - it definitely paid to plan ahead on this occasion!! Huge thanks to JAL in Australia for opening up this seat for me 🤗 My Japan adventure has started!! . Shot on Canon 90D and 15-85mm . . #japanrevealed #visitjapanau #visitjapanjp #japanairlines #japanairlines_jal #canonaustralia #canon90d #openmyworld #myworldoftravel #bbctravel #natgeotravel #natgeotravelpic #bbcearth #travelphotography #mtfuji #aerialphotography #japanvacations

London calling I’ve just finished a whirlwind work trip to London. It’s been quite a number of years since I’ve had any time in London and it was so lovely to be back (even if it was more meeting rooms than tea rooms 😁). I didn’t crack out my big camera at all (lazy!) but here’s a shot from my phone on a lovely evening on South Bank. Had to cut out Big Ben in scaffolding from the shot 😖 Next stop : Japan!! . . . . #iphone11promax #iphone11pro #london #lovelondon #britain #visitbritain #openmyworld #myworldoftravel #travelphotography #shotoniphone11pro

Stop ✋🏻 Turtle Time 🐢 Looking forward to some more turtle time after Xmas. So excited to be checking out @wilsonisland_ after it being on my bucket list for quite some time! This video taken @ladyelliotislandecoresort - another bucket list item I had the joy of visiting earlier this year. . . . #goproanz #goprohero7black #southerngbr #greatbarrierreef #seeaustralia #thisisqueensland #ladyelliot #turtle #turtleswimming

What lies below... Back in August I fulfilled a snorkelling dream I’ve had for a long time and visited @ladyelliotislandecoresort - it was magic!! But now another dream snorkelling opportunity has cropped up - fingers crossed I can make it happen!! What dreams are you going g to make happen soon? . . . . @goproanz @southerngreatbarrierreef #greatbarrierreef #underwater #snorkelling #seeaustralia #thisisqueensland #ladyelliotisland #myworldoftravel #openmyworld

Tickled Pink You would be too if you were on the island if Burano, an easy day trip from Venice! Sadly I’m not here right now, I just came across this shot randomly on my phone and it got me thinking about the eye popping colours, quaint houses and cute canals - it’s a photographer’s heaven! Also a tourist heaven however, so I’ve often thought about going back to stay overnight and enjoy it without the daytripping hordes. Have you stayed here? . . . . . #buranocolors #venice #burano #travelphotography #throwback #pink #flowersofinstagram #flowerbox

Follow your passion That’s what I keep getting told when trying to figure out my ‘niche’. I still have no idea what that is but what I do know is wildlife encounters are one of my all time favourite things, and Africa in particular holds a special place in my heart. So after much dithering and trying to justify the expense when I don’t earn anything from my photography, I thought bugger it, and I’ve booked a weeks photography tour in Kenya during the great migration next year!! SQUEAL! I can’t tell you how long this has been on my bucket list 🤗 So here’s to recklessly spending your hard earned money on indulgences with no return 💸💸 . . . #cheetah #africanature #wildlife #africa #canonaustralia #canon70d #travelphotography

What’s my scene... So I’ve been told the most important thing you need to do is find your “niche”. I love travel, reflections, beautiful landscapes, amazing experiences, nature, wildlife .... everything already done to death!! Guess I’ll stick to my day job 🤦🏻‍♀️ . . . #whatsmyniche #findyourniche #travelphotography #travel

Tortoise and the Hare 🐢🐇 Seeing this grand old dame being overtaken by a little whipper snapper reminded me of the tortoise and the hare. While it would be thrilling to zip along at high speed there’s also something to be said for taking your time and having a chance to take in the scenery. Travel is a bit like that too. When I was young I was all for 10 countries in 10 days and cramming in as much as possible. However now I really love taking my time and having a chance to absorb the small everyday scenes and encounters that add up to a far richer experience. Hands up all the tortoises 🙋🏻‍♀️ . . . . #slowtravel #queesntown #purenewzealand #wakatipu #openmyworld #myworldoftravel
