Luke O'Brien - Sun Showers, Tarkine

Luke believes a good photograph can move the viewer not only to see what it is that the photographer sees, but also to encourage and inspire the viewer to see these scenes for themselves.
The digital age has succeeded in making photography a much more accessible pursuit, but it has not changed the spirit of landscape and wilderness photography, which ultimately requires the photographer to invest their time and physical exertion in order to accomplish meaningful photographic works.

Luke’s intent is to share an appreciation of the colour, movement and drama which pulsates throughout the world, freely visible to any and all who may choose to seek it out. He hopes that his work can inspire motivation for conserving, appreciating and understanding the natural world. The more time he spends in Tasmania’s wild and natural places the more grateful he is to live in such a place and to make a living from something he loves.
