Gallery of portraits,  limited edition and vintage photographs of Indigenous Australians

 

I have been visiting and photographing the Tiwi Indigenous Australian inhabitants of Bathurst and Melville Islands, 60 kilometres north of Darwin, since 1987. Two books have resulted from those visits, the latest "Portrait of a People" is available in my online bookshop.
