This video I am extremely proud of. As much what the women have achieved in the video, than the effort to create it.
A great team effort stretching over a couple of years, documenting a group of entrepreneurial ladies who started the Halls Creek Women's Hub.
The idea behind the hub was to enable local indigenous women to congregate, communicate and create art and fashion. What a wonderful success story.
Many thanks to Lee-Anne Smith at the Halls Creek Women’s Hub, Job Pathways and the wonderful team at Wunan Media.

This is Day 1 of my One Lens Challenge Tour of South Australia. You may recall me doing same in Tasmania. I loved the challenge so much I thought I'd punish myself some more.
Compared to a phone, where you just point and shoot, this 50mm (f1.2) lens is all about framing, composition, depth of field and light. And when you are on holidays, time is of the essence, as you don't want to hold up the others experience while you set up your intricately-framed shot. And you just end up losing the spontenaiety of the moment. So speed and accuracy is key....and making snap decisions on what is worth capturing.
I've made little comments on each photo to highlight some of the challenges I faced.
I graded everything in Lightroom. Enjoy.

Today marks day 1 on my 24 day Push-Up Challenge; 3,139 push-ups over 24 days, the representing the number of Australians who died by Su***de in 2020. Yes, that's staggering.

A note about mental health. One recent analysis of scientific evidence suggests that three 45 minute exercise sessions per week (135 minutes total) is enough to provide anti-depressant benefits to mental health.
And it's not too late for you to join me. Just download the Push-up Challenge app onto your phone, register and become one of over 100,000 pusheruperers!!
Here's me below doing same last year on the Kalbarri Skywalk. You can do them anywhere.
And I'm 68, so the 'I'm too old for this' excuse won't cut it. :-)
Yes, I'm raising funds but that's not my focus. I just want to bring attention to mental health and to get you exercising.
Kind regards,
Ross
