Here are some “tear sheets” of some of my photos that have been published in print in the last few weeks. I’ll try to show some examples of where my work is used from time to time but keep in mind these are just some examples, there also will also be a lot of other images being used that I probably won’t get around to showing here. I don’t have the time or inclination to scan it all in and I don’t feel the need to show it all.
Alpha Magazine (Australia) used my shot of Nathan Hoette (on his Sparticus, grade 33, in the Grampians) in their April issue for their “Man Alive” section. Nathan backed it up by giving readers a bit of schooling in the finer points of rock climbing in his typically entertaining style.
Men’s Health in the USA used my shot of Steve McClure clipping on Mecca (8b+, at Raven Tor, UK) to illustrate a training article. When it comes to muscle definition it’d be hard to beat Steve’s guns. The article and photo has already since been reprinted in Men’s Health Australia and Mens Health South Africa.
The German climbing magazine Klettern was the first publication to use one of my photos from my new years trip to Tasmania. The photo is of Steve Moon on the ultra classic Pole Dancer (22) which is located right out at the end of Cape Raoul, at the southern tip of the Tasman Peninsular. Getting this shot took a few days of hard work but it’s a place I’d always wanted to visit and it was well worth it. It’s about three hours hike to the start of the Cape proper, so we camped there the first night like most parties do. From there it’s several hours of abseiling, scrambling, climbing, scrambling, abseiling, climbing, etc, just to get to the start of Pole Dancer. You feel pretty committed and out there near the end of the Cape, as if you’re on a big wall or a mountain ridge. A totally awesome place though and a great experience.
