Even for those not in Newcastle, have a look at the link above, if you are into portraits, there is one successful Australian.

Cheers,

André

I've known Karin since she was about 13 (and still called Karen ). She's the sister of one of my mates. It's been very interesting seeing her grow into the photographer she is now.

And her photo of David Byrne is brilliant.

Is that one of Jack Nicholson taken with a fisheye? I knew it could be used for portraits!

Some interesting work there - the RH Garrett's an ugly bugger isn't he?

Thanks for the heads up - great shots and a local to boot. Really want to catch this.

Awesome. Might have to make a trip to Newcastle...Awesome portraits, and to top it off I love David Byrnes music...

A reminder for the Newcastle members,

this exhibition finishes next weekend, Sunday 21/01/07. I visited it on Saturday and I highly recommend it. There are some amazing portraits. Even if you are not into portraits, well worth it.

A lot of famous people have been photographed by Karin Catt. Some in a "natural" setting, others have been staged. Most of them do seem to bring out the person so when you see a photo of say Russell Crow, you can see some part of his personality come out. There are both colour and b&w prints.

While you are there, the Walkley-Nikon awards for photography are also being exhibited next door at the Lovett Gallery in the Newcastle Library.

Don't miss either

Cheers,

André
