National Photographic Portrait Prize 2015 Finalist
Fifteen years into retirement and Harry is still always up before sunrise. This routine is something that I, his grandson, have failed to acquire. On this particular morning, my eyes stinging from tiredness, we hitched the boat trailer at 5am. An hour later, the tinny was launched onto the calm of Lake Hume, 30 minutes before the sun breached the horizon, with no other souls in sight.
The National Photographic Portrait Prize exhibition is selected from a national field of entries, reflecting the distinctive vision of Australia's aspiring and professional portrait photographers and the unique nature of their subjects.
Explore portraiture and come face to face with Australian identity, history, culture, creativity and diversity.
