My first flag!!

The photos most resorts tend to use for their advertising is always questionable at the best of times. Over the past couple of years I have been fortunate enough to shoot some imagery for Perisher. While some of my shots have popped up in their brouchures before I have never had a shot used on a banner or a flag.

The image used is of young 17 yo ripper Sam Murphy shot in late July last year. Sam pictured below on the right was also pretty stoked on his first flag too. Hi five Sam!!

Murwillambah Flood May 2009


Recently while working up in Burleigh, QLD on the latest run of Snowboarder mags I was staying with a friend in a little town on the Tweed River called Murwillambah. Now when it rains in Murwillambah it pours and over the space of three days the town recorded a third of its yearly rainfall and the water level rose quite steadily.
Needless to say I had a few interesting drives to and from work. It was interesting to watch the park across the road fill up into a lake. I shot these images on my little Nikon Coolpix compact camera.
