    'I've always had a passion for landscape photography and spend most of the weekends trying to capture the stunning Australian scenery,' he revealed

    Living near the harbour in Perth gives him the unique opportunity to capture stunning shots over the water

    'Everybody has a camera these days especially smart phone cameras so people are getting less and less impressed with landscape photos,' Oliver said

    Oliver ditched the UK after 31 years for a rather large sea change and to escape the working grind
