Damien Pleming - Living the dream

"Growing up footy was my life. The real footy that is, AFL!! I had a taste of the big time in 1995 when I completed pre-season and played 2 games with the Sydney Swans reserves. Typical sob story though, bodgy knee finished that dream and started another.
So when this job shooting the AFL presenters of Channel 10 came up it was a great chance to get amongst footy again. I've gotta say I do love it when the 1st game of the season comes around.
Cheer Cheer the red and the white!!!"
Damien Pleming.

Wood from the Hood a la Janyon

"I undertook a personal project to do a portrait of Garth Wood (aka Wood from the Hood). Garth is a bit of a bleeder, that is he cuts above the eye easily and his opponents know this is his Achilles heel.

Myself and MUA Michelle Dube thought this would make for an interesting subject and with Michelle's effort we managed to get some time with Australia's most promising middleweight boxer.

The former Rabbitoh's player grew up tough on the (then) mean streets of Redfern, and quit footy to focus on boxing. He won Fox's "the Contender" and shortly after this shoot he went on to knock out Anthony "the Man" Mundine in December 2010.

After shooting some broody and bloody portraits, I wanted to get an opponents POV image that captured the energy and power of a punch from this man. I wondered how scary it must be to receive that right hook in the kisser. I'm sure Mundine knows.... I love the fact that this image puts you there in the ring and you can almost smell the sweat and the lights and the aggression.

As a human being, Garth came across calm and softly spoken, and was a pleasure to work with, but even if he wasn't its not like he was going to get any lip from me."

Martin Mischkulnig's book "Smalltown"

Mischkulnig has said he “set out to document the feeling and quality of what small-town Australia is. I don’t believe that Australians have comfortably settled into their environment and from this I sense a yearning for place”.

The result is a beautiful book filled with images of Australian landscapes that will seem outlandish to most Australians. Journalist Alan Attwood points out these are not images of Australia that we see in mainstream media accompanied by signing children in NapiSan white outfits (www.walkleys.com). Here is a collection of photos pointing out the marks people have left on remote landscapes. Mischkulnig's expert eye for detail picks out those marks which are most at odds with the natural surrounds - a loan McDonald's sign acts as a foreign flag post whose yellow and red is unnatural amongst the drab colours of the desolate landscape.

Mischkulnig's images are accompanied by an essay by celebrated novelist Tim Winton.

Martin Mischkulnig's book Smalltown will be available on Amazon as of the 1st of June.

"Last week I was in central Queensland working on a commercial project for an Australian Energy company. After a long day shoot we headed back to Chinchilla through a road that divides the cotton fields. We stopped to take a look at the sunset and I took a few snaps."
