As many of you may know I am one of nine that constitute the photojournalist collective ‘fotostrada’.
Formed in Sydney in 2008 the collective membership now extends geographically around Australia and to India and Malaysia. We are a varied lot – a mix of wire and newspaper staffers and freelancers and all very experienced – but we all have one (at least!) thing in common … Photojournalism and a real passion for the photographic image.
You will find on the ‘fotostrada’ site individual photographers portfolios and biographies, a ‘Latest Singles’ section which is updated with members new single images every month … and a ‘Latest Stories’ section where new photographic essays are introduced.
Below are just a few selected images from our members latest pic essays – you can find the essays in full at ‘Latest Stories’.
Our members are : Dean Lewins and Tracey Nearmy (AAP – Sydney), Sam Mooy (The Australian – Sydney), Kelly Barnes (The Australian – Adelaide), Dean Saffron (Freelance – Brisbane), Mark ‘Crusty’ Baker (AP – KL Malaysia), Melanie Russell (Freelance – Sydney), Graham Crouch (Freelance – Delhi India) and myself … freelance based in Cairns northern Australia.
