As a teenage boy, I hated dancing, like a lot of other teenage boys I suspect.
Growing up in Australia during the 1980’s, I had a saviour. Peter Garrett, the energetic front man of ‘Midnight Oils’. Peter has a unique dancing style, and that is putting it mildly. But his style was easy for me to copy, so thank you Peter, teenage awkwardness solved!
Ever since I have loved their music. I also remember each album cover had an amazing landscape image on the cover.
Thirty years later when I fell in love with landscape photography, Midnight Oil’s images were my starting point. In this blog post I walk you through how I found the location of the photo and attempted to replicate it.
Out of all the Midnight Oil album covers, for me the cover of ‘Diesel and Dust’ is the one that comes to mind. This is the photo I want to replicate. Image copyright (Midnight Oil, 1987)
I’ve created a video that shows my journey to re-create Ken’s Photo, I hope you enjoy it.
