I love the challenge of creating images that please the eye, tell a story, engage the mind, or evoke an emotion. Hopefully more than one of these. I live in Melbourne, Australia. All images are my own, unless otherwise stated. www.michaelking.au

It was very peaceful watching the moon set and the stars move, with the sounds of the waves below. The orange glow of Aurora Australis wasn't visible to the naked eye, but clear in the viewfinder.
