“I had developed a keen interest in photography and bought my first camera, a single-lens-reflex Japanese Kowa. I didn’t have any arts education but, because I grew up in the outdoors, I think I became conscious of how the country looked. And when you go into the Outback, you do feel a spirit there in the wide-open spaces.”
