I love the photo opportunities that come with winter. Long golden hours as the sun slowly rises and sets, crisp mornings and cosy evenings curled up at home in a blanket. We haven’t had much of a winter this year though, it has been very warm. Here’s a few of my favourite memories from the past few months. Photos that prove it’s worth getting up early, despite the cold!

Misty mornings on the way home from Auckland.

The crunchy grass of a stiff frost in Rotorua.

Frosted leaves in the garden.

Alpine adventures, chasing light in Tongariro National Park.
