Palmerston North photographer Gerry le Roux (MNZIPP) is an award-winning landscape, documentary and illustrative photographer, and lecturer in photography at UCOL Manawatu, New Zealand.

When not teaching, or capturing images of science and industry through his photography business Sciencelens, Gerry is likely to be out walking the streets of small towns around the region pursuing his quest to capture singular scenes of the human-altered New Zealand landscape. His urban landscape images operate at the intersection between street, architectural and landscape photography, and are typified by a calm minimalism and formal, often starkly geometric compositions, in high contrast black and white or saturated colour.

 His work can be classified as straight photography, aligned with the New Topographics and New Objectivity movements in contemporary urban landscape photography.
