For the last few years, I have been planning to submit a few images to this competition, which in the world of landscape and panoramic photography, is a big deal. But for whatever reason (probably just being a lazy shit), I never got around to it.

The Liquid Collective is pleased to announce our newest publicly released Limited Edition print, VALLEYS + PEAKS.

It was just two days ago that we were able to release what is personally one of my favourite images that The Liquid Collective has shot to date.

So. I don’t even know where to begin. This blog is going to be a regular part of the JDK world, documenting and showcasing behind the scenes aspects of the work that goes in to produce some of these incredible images and give a general glimpse into the not so glamorous life of a photographer.

I don’t know where to begin! The last few weeks have been crazy - changing jobs (I now work down on a marina in South Lake Tahoe, in and out of the crystal clear, blue water and on and off boats all day - it could be worse), moving house and having my own room again (which is amazing with such cool roommates who have two absolutely awesome dogs), new camera gear and still finding time for adventures!

The last few weeks have been absolutely crazy! And, at the same time, offered a much needed break from the stresses and mundane actions of job hunting and apartment hunting for the summer. I headed east to the other side of the United States, to New Jersey, to spend time with family for a few weeks.

Travelling is fast becoming something I have experienced much more of in the past 6 months. I have travelled before with family and a few times by myself but in October 2015, I set of with my mum to Japan for two weeks, came back for less than 48 hours and left on a minimum 12 month trip to America and possibly other locations around the world.
