Thoughts on randomness from Moscow
Our final Photo Walk of the 80 Stays tour was in Moscow and our theme was randomness. We had a crazy but epic time during our short time in there and on our quick trip to St Petersburg. Randomness and exploration, a fitting way to sum up the whole tour. ![]() |

Hasselblad X1D - The first Mirrorless Medium-Format camera![]()
A new review! As you may have seen I have been using the new Hasselblad X1D. I took it over to Europe for our #80Stays tour, and it did not disappoint! It's such an incredible machine and it is quickly becoming my primary camera.
A little bit about this camera
It’s the first medium-format camera that is also mirrorless! This makes it very small and light while still producing absolutely stunning photos with incredible optics at 50 megapixels.

Feelin' GrooveSalad - A Spotify PlaylistI'm just going to say it, Spotify is awesome. I have my whole house connected so the whole family can listen to my party beats whenever they like. I also spend a lot of time curating specific playlists for specific moods, one of my favorites is Feelin' GrooveSalad which I listen to when I'm deep into post processing. Listen and enjoy! ![]() |

It's the middle of winter here in New Zealand, so here's some snowy photos from around Queenstown :)Cloud Formations
![]() Here's a sunset from about a week ago taken from my quad above my house. After it was taken the clouds went crazy! The whole valley filled with fog, I could barely see my house.
Glowing lights of Coronet Peak
![]() This is kind of a crazy photo, eh? In a lot of ways, I think it is kind of a crappy photo, but in another way, it's sort of an abstract. I was going back and forth between how to process this photo, and I finally decided on this other-worldly look. The whole thing reminds me of something sci-fi in a way… the idea of skiing at night is pretty awesome. I can see this lit-up ski field atop Coronet Peak from my home down at the bottom of the mountain.
Following the stream
![]() Here is a view from just out of Queenstown, I did a road trip to a remote part of the Mackenzie Basin on the South Island here... beautiful spots everywhere. I got out of the bathroom to "commune with nature" and saw this. After communion, I went to go back to get my camera.
A Starry Morning Atop The Remarkables
![]() Was it cold here? Yes, oh yes. I was up here for something called “World Social Media Day” which sounds like a fairly self-congratulatory idea. I don't know who thought up this day, but probably a bunch of Social Media people who got together and said, “Hey, we're pretty awesome, let's have a day all about US!” haha… honestly, that is probably the way it narcissistically went down. Anyway, they contacted me in Queenstown and asked if I wanted to go participate and freeze my ass off up here, and I said, “Hey sure sounds like fun I don't like sleeping in any way.”
Back to Queenstown after 25 hours
![]() After a whirlwind 24 hours in Auckland, I was happy to be back in Queenstown. That's the Crown Range and Arrowtown on the left and the Remarkables and Queenstown on the right. I finished while on the plane... this is a panorama made from 4 different quadcopter shots and edited in Aurora HDR. Yes, Windows version soon!
On Top of The World in New Zealand
![]() There are so many incredible mountains here in the Southern Alps around Queenstown. I think this one is Mount Alfred and it's quite majestic! You can climb up it without too much trouble (well, there's no cliffs or anything), but that may take you 3-4 hours. In this case, we decided to fly up here with Over the Top Helicopters!
