23.01.2022 Some BTS shots from Friday’s shoot on Mount Wellington. Sometimes getting the camera and light in the rite position involves some human Yo-Yo action ! It takes a brave person to speak out in Tasmania. This is Phil Harris, and others are winning up behind him.
21.01.2022 Some great news and a whole lot of really strong work. Matthew has been named as a finalist in the Australian Photography Awards. Take a moment to look through all the finalist's images and you will see that photo stories are alive and well in Australia. What a great initiative! It's fantastic to see a couple of photographers from the small island represented.
20.01.2022 Recent work for The Guardian Australia. Former Reuters journalist Dean Yates was in charge of the bureau in Baghdad when his Iraqi colleagues Namir Noor-Eldeen and Saeed Chmagh were killed. A WikiLeaks video called Collateral Murder later revealed details of their death, For all the countless words from the United States military about its killing of the Iraqi Reuters journalists Namir Noor-Eldeen and Saeed Chmagh, their colleague Dean Yates has two of his own: All lies.
20.01.2022 A truly incredible few days on Tasmania’s West Coast. The largest recorded whale standing anywhere. The rescuers worked in cold, challenging and confronting conditions to try and save as many whales as possible. They tried to focus on the positive effect they were having even when some of the animals did not survive. "Without our assistance they would be pretty compromised out there, so each one you can help in any capacity, whether that's to relieve their suffering or get ou...t there and free them, it's part of the job and part of what we signed up to do and yeah, any relief we can give them is what we aim for at the moment. Dr Julie McInnes ( pictured ) In all, rescuers saved 108 out of the 470 whales that landed this week on a wide, remote sandbank in Tasmania’s rugged Macquarie Harbour. Tasmania has long been a global hot spot for the whale strandings.
20.01.2022 My image of Allana Beltran, The Weld Angel appeared in the Good Weekend Magazine on Saturday with a fantastic article David Leser by and Cover shot by James Brickwood. I was a finalist in the Walkley Awards for a photo essay including this image way back in 2007. I am not credited for the image, as it was sourced from AAP. One of the biggest issues as a freelancer is keeping control of your images once they are released to the media. Anyway, it is great to see it is still being used for good. Thanks for publishing it Katrina Strickland.
20.01.2022 We love meeting and supporting the creative people of this island. Images of the wonderful Tasmanian writer Robert Dessaix published in the Weekend Australian Magazine and Review over the weekend to accompany the launch of his new book The Time of Our Lives.
15.01.2022 At RUMMIN we love a working on a good science story ! I really like a good science story ! This is the rarest bird in Australia. The Orange Bellied Parrot ( Neophema chrysogaster). And this is Shannon Troy, lead wildlife biologist for the DPIPWE ( Tasmanian State Government) Orange-bellied Parrot Tasmanian Program . It is really inspiring to see the dedication of Tasmanian’s field biologists as they work hard to ensure the survival of these wonderful little birds. These bird...s are being released into the wild at a remote site in Tasmania’s South West. The orange-bellied parrot, remains at severe risk of extinction despite decades of intensive conservation work in their Tasmanian breeding range.Although conservation efforts have increased the breeding success of parrots in the wild, 80 per cent of juveniles born in their sole breeding ground in Tasmania die on migration and over winter.

13.01.2022 Story is the most powerful way to bring new ideas into the world. This is what is called building reach through creating great images and stories. Two of our projects ( namanu rruni / Albatross Island and Extinction Studies ) have recently featured on the ABC. We were approached by the national broadcaster to supply additional footage for their stories. It is fantastic to see these two important, related issues getting national air time.

11.01.2022 Making documentaries is all about telling stories, bearing witness and giving the future a view of the past. Last year whilst filming our documentary Convoy at the Wangan and Jagalingou Water Festival at Clermont in central Queensland this bloke, a supporter of the Adani mine very nearly ran me over with his horse. He proceeded to slam into a woman about twenty meters from me. At the time there was very real fears she had been killed. Yesterday he pleaded guilty to Negligent... Acts Causing Harm, Obstruct Police Officer, Common Assault and Trespass. In the Emerald Magistrates Court QLD he was fined $2000 with no conviction recorded. A few weeks before this occurred 13 people received fines of up to $8000 each after they chained themselves to coal-loading equipment at the Abbot Point Port. You can see the full story on Convoy, details on our website Tasmanian Filmmakers Stop Adani Bob Brown Foundation Documentary Australia Foundation Screen Tasmania Frontline Action on Coal Wangan and Jagalingou Traditional Owners Council See more

06.01.2022 Tasmania is full of great innovative small businesses. Some recent work for the Guardian featuring just one of them...
04.01.2022 Spare a thought for the fantastic people from the Marine Conservation Program and the trained volunteers that will be working long, wet and cold hours to help rescue as many of the 250 stranded whales as possible on Tasmania's West Coast over the next few days. The conditions have been described as "Pretty ugly" there at the moment. *image is from a whale stranding a few years ago on Tasmania's east coast and a documentary that never found a home...1800WHALE - The story of the Tasmanian "Whale Hotline" Marine Conservation Program Tasmanian Science Communicators Tasmania Parks and Wildlife Service Screen Tasmania Tasmania Police
02.01.2022 On world Albatross day... namanu rruni - Albatross Island The island was not always here... And then it was They called it namanu rruni, the ones who came, on rare calm days, to hunt They called it Albatross Island, the ones who came, in all weathers, to take all that they could Albatross island, 18 hectares of conglomerate rock off the north western tip of Tasmania, Australia. It is home to 5200 breeding pairs of shy albatross, these birds are endemic to Tasmania. In the 1800’s they were harvested to near extinction, the population gradually recovered to half the estimated historical population size. In recent years the population has started to decline. A long term monitoring program which has been in progress for over thirty years. When on the island the small team live in a giant cave that partially protects them from the elements. These trips are entirely self-sufficient and focus on minimal impact research. Life on the island is typically cold often wet and always windy. https://vimeo.com/ondemand/albatrossisland
