Portraits of natives from Port Darwin
ALBUM: Attributed to Paul Foelsche, comprising 39 portraits of Aboriginal people of Port Darwin. For more information about Foelsche's Aboriginal portraits, please see the South Australian Museum website re "The Policeman's Eye" exhibition, curated by Philip Jones, who wrote; "Despite his role as a powerful police official, Paul Foelsche prepared these portraits with great care and sympathy. The people they depict all passed away several generations ago, and these images can be regarded safely now, without offending the living or the spirits of the dead." -- information from South Australian Museum website (no longer available).

Ceduna Pier
Aboriginal girls sitting on the jetty at Ceduna, from left to right: Skyanne Sambo, Jorden Miller, Tamika LeBois, Jazlyn Sambo, and Tia Carbine. The photographer describes some of his time in Ceduna, "Ceduna turned out to be a town where I was able to work with and record a positive face of Aboriginal culture. I had been working with a lady called Shelley Coleman, who has strong family ties in the Ceduna district. One day I received a phone call from Shelley and she invited me down to the pier to photograph what she considered to be a "right of passage" for the young children in Ceduna. When I arrived I found Shelley, her daughter and a group of her school friends whose summer activity is to go to the pier after school and jump off into the sea and spend some time socializing with each other. Under normal circumstances this is a "no go zone" with Aboriginal children, but because I was invited by Shelley I was allowed to record this coastal beach culture."
