Featured in Australian Geographic — Warrumbungle Night Sky

It’s an honour to have one of my photographs featured in the July–August 2025 issue of Australian Geographic. The article, titled ‘Let There Be Night’, explores the impact of light pollution on our night skies — an issue close to my heart as someone who regularly travels to dark sky locations to photograph the Milky Way. Seeing my work contribute to that conversation in such a respected publication is incredibly rewarding.

The photograph, Warrumbungle Night Sky, was taken at 3am on a cold July night in 2021, deep inside Warrumbungle National Park — one of Australia’s few designated Dark Sky Parks. The Milky Way arches directly over the volcanic ridgeline in a way that only reveals itself when you’re truly away from city lights. The shot captures what’s being lost: that intimate, overwhelming sense of scale that comes from standing under a sky unburdened by artificial light.

The image was part of a 600-frame series shot for a Milky Way time-lapse — you can watch the full time-lapse here to see the night sky in motion over the Warrumbungles.

Warrumbungle Night Sky is available as a fine art print — a striking statement piece for any interior where the drama and depth of the Australian night sky feels at home.
