My father was Lionel Bruce Clark (1933 – 2000), born in Forster Street in the Launceston suburb of Invermay (colloquially known as The Swamp). He was, in many ways, a hard and complex character much like his father William Lionel Clark. This photograph of my father was made around 1950. I scanned the image from a 6cm x 9cm film negative, made by his mother Elvie Ruth Bonner (1901-1986). She included herself as the shadow.

My name is Steven Clark and I live in the Derwent Valley in Southern Tasmania. I have an MBA (Specialisation) and a Bachelor of Computing from the University of Tasmania. I'm a mazer & a yeast farmer (making beer, fruit wine and mead as by-products of continuous improvement in my farming practices). I'm a photographer, although my film cameras are currently silent. I do not tolerate idiots. I do not tolerate bigotry. I do not tolerate excuses. Let's be clear, if you sit with my enemies you my are my enemy for life.
