Arnhem Land

Behind the Scenes on a Documentary in far north Australia that I shot with friend and Producer Phil Harris. We saw some amazing things that have remained unseen and untouched for countless years.

This trip opened my eyes to some of most incredible and beautiful sides of Aboriginal culture. But there wer many things i saw that made me so very sad.

I'll never forget standing on the skid of the helicopter....holding onto the door frame with one hand...my body with camera in the left had exteded as far out of the helicopter as possible.

Phil asked the pilot if he could straighten up a bit as we were flying askew and almost sideways. He said yeah but only once i got back in as the wind drag my body was causing made it impossible to fly straight! Phil turned around to see what was going on and was horrifed to see me hanging outside the helicopter with no harness or belt attached as we flew over crock-infested waters :)
