“The individual has always had to struggle to keep from being overwhelmed by the tribe. If you try it, you will be lonely often, and sometimes frightened. But no price is too high to pay for the privilege of owning yourself “

The Tim Fairfax Family Foundation
In July this year the Tim Fairfax Family Foundation celebrated their tenth year anniversary.
I was commissioned to document a number of the organisations they have supported throughout Qld, resulting in this publication "Focus & Connect, Celebrating 10 Years 2008-2018"
It was great to see my portrait of the Artist “William Robinson” featured on one of the interactive display screens at The Cube, QUT Gardens Point Campus, Brisbane.

the Steve Irwin Wildlife Reserve
2018 was my ninth year documenting the annual Crocodile Research Trip at the Steve Irwin Wildlife Reserve. The Croc research team are there for over a month and I am there for just over a week. It is a achingly beautiful part of the world, to see a landscape only touched by nature is very special and I am very thankful to get to be there every year.
