about

Wildlight's extensive collections of indigenous Australian images are as timelessly interesting as the age-old story they tell. We're pleased to have just added two recent collections:

Grenville Turner's Aboriginal Tourism

An outstanding fresh collection of images from more than a dozen sites across Australia, each accompanied by an optional feature story which can be purchased to complement the pictures.

Penny Tweedie's Arnhem Land

The Top End explored with iconic new material from communities like Maningrida in the Arafura Wetlands on the estuary of the Liverpool River, "the place where the dreaming changed shape", as well as other remote outstations throughout Arnhem Land.

Penny's special portrait collection entitled Famous Aborigines, Australia 1975-85 is also well worth a look, click here to see the full gallery.

Cultural Statement | This work contains life stories and photographs of many Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander men and women who have made great contributions to their people and their country. The story of Aboriginal Australia could not be told without recognising their achievements. Readers of the work should be aware that in some Aboriginal communities, seeing the names and photographs of dead people may cause sadness and distress, particularly to relatives of those people. Before using this work in such communities, readers should establish what wishes of senior community members are and take their advice on procedures and safeguards to be adopted.
