This one immersive experience is 18 photos stitched together, photographed with a DSLR, a special fisheye lens and a panoramic tripod head that keeps everything aligned so that it stitches together perfectly.

Svartifoss Waterfall is one of the more popular waterfalls in Iceland, it is quite unique with its 20 meter drop and black basalt columns. I travelled to Iceland in 2015 during the summer solstice / midnight sun, a time where the sunset lasts for hours on end and almost seamlessly blends into the sunrise.

Due to the hours we were keeping we would photograph all night and then camp during the day, taking our tents with us all around the island, dodging bad weather and chasing the perfect light conditions.

We camped at the campgrounds at the base of Svartifoss for a night. Such a great experience to hike to the top to the waterfall and have it completely to ourselves in the very early morning.

Some sunrises will just stay with you for a life time… 

I'd been travelling through Antarctica for several weeks already when we went through the Lemaire Channel at Sunrise.

It was one of those sunrises that just kept getting better and better until at one point it was like the sky and ocean were on fire.

The 3 weeks on a ship, crossing the wild Drake Passage after flying across the world to South America were all worth it for this single experience!

A signed fine art print will be sent to the first collector of my genesis piece here on Foundation.

Part proceeds of every single NFT I sell will be re-invested back into the community, I will be collecting photography and other art NFTs that I connect with.

Part proceeds from every sale I make (NFT / Print / Licensing) is used to further worthy causes, usually youth development, habitat protection and endangered wildlife preservation.

Ebisu & Daikoku Rocks are incredible, I don't understand how they are still standing, or how they formed this way without collapsing!

Weirdly this rock "spoke" to me, I found myself wondering I'm still standing after the last few years as my business collapsed around me and everything I've worked for over the last two decades fell away. I find myself somehow still standing regardless.

Moments of Yūgen is a collection of moments where I have connected with "the universe" / God / however you would like to describe it, I've stood in awe and wonder of the world and universe around me and have been truly present in that moment.

A signed and numbered print is available to redeem by the first collector. This NFT is for personal use only, no commercial use.

I came across this alleyway while exploring Tokyo in January 2020. It is in the Shinjuku region of Tokyo and was a great find, full of incredible food being cooked over hot coals.

Eye to the Galaxy is the first fully interactive 360 degree night sky image on the blockchain!

As a child I heard a myth that you can see the stars during daylight from the bottom of a deep enough well or gorge... it is a complete myth, with no basis at all in truth, the only star we can see during daylight is our sun.

This did get me to wondering what the night sky would look like from the bottom of a gorge though. I spent a considerable amount of time in research to find the right time of year and the right gorge to get the milky way to line up with the opening so I could take a photograph from the bottom of it, looking straight up at the stars.

This photo is actually 18 photos stitched together using a special tripod head and lens so that the stitching is perfect.

A tree sits in a lake under the Western Australian night skies.

Over the last 14 years of living in Western Australia I have explored most of it, spending weeks living out of my 4x4 with a swag and finding some very unique places with unique scenes.

This is a location that I've often been asked about, I've never shared the location as it is quite dangerous to get to if you are inexperienced in being self-sufficient in the outback.

There are no established tracks to this particular lake, instead you have to wade through soft marsh and mud on foot.

As far as I know, I'm the only one to have photographed it, especially at night, there is no dry or solid ground near this spot, making it nearly impossible to camp close by.

The smoke in the lower part of the frame was from some bushfires over 2 hours drive away, it was lit up by some mining infrastructure, adding an orange glow to the lower half of the frame.

Oxarfoss Waterfall is located within the Þingvellir (pronounced Thingvellir) National Park in Southwest Iceland. The waterfall drops over the cliffs of the Almannagja gorge, which marks the boundary of the North American & European tectonic plates.

Photographed in 2015 during a trip around Iceland, due to the hours we were keeping we would photograph all night and then camp during the day, taking our tents with us all around the island, dodging bad weather and chasing the perfect light conditions.

This is a 360 degree photo turned into a "little planet", taken in Perth, Western Australia in Elizabeth Quay. The footbridge there turns into an infinity symbol when viewed like this. Original artwork and photography by Paul Pichugin.
