Waterproof:

a history of Australian surfing since 1858 – in pictures

From the first known photograph of an Australian surf spot

to the 20th century boom in surfing,

photographer John Ogden’s book Waterproof

looks at surf and ocean photography

through a broad lens and pays homage

to some of the sport’s greatest photographers

In an animistic world, everything is interconnected:

people, plants and animals, landforms and celestial bodies

are part of a larger reality.

In this world, nothing is inanimate,

everything is alive– all are energised by a spirit.

As such, humans are on an equal footing with nature,

are part of nature and are morally obligated to treat animals,

plants and landforms with respect.

Two decades of Indigenous photography:

the work of Wayne Quilliam – in pictures

For more than 20 years,

Aboriginal photographer Wayne Quilliam

has captured significant Indigenous events across Australia,

from the national apology to the Stolen Generations

to the Garma, Barunga and Yeperenye festivals.

In his travels through country,

Quilliam often visits communities to teach Indigenous youth

how to capture their own lives through a lens.

His book, Culture is Life,

is a modern, photographic celebration

of the diversity of Indigenous Australians

Above Australia's Northern Territory

Over half of Australia

lies above the Tropic of Capricorn,

but it is home

to only five percent of the population.

It is a frontier land

with little infrastructure,

populated by cattle barons,

crocodile hunters

and aboriginal tribes.

Geologists say

the Northern Territory,

which is the size of South Africa,

has abundant diamond,

gold and uranium reserves.

However, a fifth of the Northern Territory

is owned or controlled by aboriginal groups

and many Aborigines

have joined environmentalists

to discourage mining.
