My father died 14 year ago from chronic lung disease. He smoked cigarettes and worked in heavy industry. This photograph of my father was scanned from a 6cm x 9cm film negative made by my paternal grandmother Elvie Ruth Bonner (1901-1986). I like this portrait for the shadows of my grandmother and aunt. I also like the hard shadow on the right side. I’m not sure where he was traveling, possibly to serve his national service.

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.
