Waterproof:
a history of Australian surfing
since 1858 – in pictures
From the first known photograph of an
Australian surf spot
to the 20th century boom in surfing,
photographer John Ogden’s book Waterproof
looks at surf and ocean photography
through a broad lens and pays homage
to some of the sport’s greatest
photographers

In an animistic world, everything is interconnected:
people, plants and animals, landforms and celestial bodies
are part of a larger reality.
In this world, nothing is inanimate,
everything is alive– all are energised by a spirit.
As such, humans are on an equal footing with nature,
are part of nature and are morally obligated to treat animals,
plants and landforms with respect.
Two decades of Indigenous photography:
the work of Wayne Quilliam – in pictures
For more than 20 years,
Aboriginal photographer Wayne Quilliam
has captured significant Indigenous events across Australia,
from the national apology to the Stolen Generations
to the Garma, Barunga and Yeperenye festivals.
In his travels through country,
Quilliam often visits communities to teach Indigenous youth
how to capture their own lives through a lens.
His book, Culture is Life,
is a modern, photographic celebration
of the diversity of
Indigenous Australians

Above Australia's Northern Territory
Over half of Australia
lies above the Tropic of Capricorn,
but it is home
to only five percent of the population.
It is a frontier land with little infrastructure,
populated by cattle barons, crocodile hunters
and aboriginal tribes.
Geologists say the Northern Territory,
which is the size of South
Africa,
has abundant diamond,
gold and uranium reserves.
However, a fifth of the Northern Territory
is owned or controlled
by aboriginal groups
and many Aborigines have joined environmentalists
to discourage mining.

If It Were My Home
The headlines tell a lot
about the crisis in Yemen:
internal strife,
evacuations of international aid workers,
Saudi Arabian airstrikes.
But you may have one very basic question
that you can't easily find an answer for:
How big is Yemen,
anyway?
You can look at maps
and check out Wikipedia
but wouldn't it be great
to just to slap an outline of Yemen
on top of a map of the United States
to get a sense of its size?
IfItWereMyHome.com
lets you do just that.
