Fun with a torch in motion; colour temperature, cloudy skies, late moons

An orchard close-up and work for saints; slow film, depth of field and colour shifts

Strong contrasts in form and colour; perspective, light balancing and the winter moon

The female form revealed on film; a summery advent of moon rays

After midnight, the search for illumination continues, in a translucent sort of way

Silver surf and f16 on the beach; handling difficult focus by using a small aperture

Simple forms and shadow effects; street lighting used with wind-blown moonlight

Using flash with moonlight; square format composition

The fall – and rise – of water over 2 minutes; unusual soundtrack of a cascade silenced

30 seconds in the life of waterfowl; balancing harsh and hand-crafted lighting

Shipping signature from the beach below Paritutu; exposing for highlights with a high moon

A cabbage tree lit up from an unlikely source; star movement, lens choice, colour casts

Monochrome peak-and-pines at a road end; composition and the continuing lure of square format

Night magic in sepia; much longer exposures using a Pentax 6×7 as second camera

Decorative arch and summer peak from Surf Highway 45; working by the westerly early moon

Striking blue moonlight under a black sky; f16 and depth of field

An inspiring new structure, after dark; noise, scale and safety

High contrast land, sea and sky; late moons, weariness and night safety

Heavy cloud cover streaked with moonlight; the timelessness of unlit waters

In praise of pink; a secluded suburban waterfront and the challenge of the night-lit city

From a pier on a rainy summer’s evening; an experiment with flash, tungsten and long exposure

Combining flashlight with moonlight; controlling the effect by ISO adjustment

A daylight effect and a sea change with long exposure; simplicity as a composition cue

Blowing in the wind on a sandy shore; the perils of calendar picture selection

Time on the trot, subtle surf and a shadow; the frustrations of focus
