Forest detail, Weldborough, Tasmania - AUD$1500
I’d fallen in with some local conservationists who were protesting the clear-felling of their valley’s old-growth myrtle forests by the woodchipping companies. They had taken me to shoot the scenes of utter destruction the loggers left behind them, and I needed a shot of the original forest before the chainsaws arrived. A long walk into the bush brought me here. It’s no longer there. They lost. We lost.
