It’s always nice to send a package overseas when you can use a stamp with a Wildlight image. This beautiful scenic of Rottnest Island is by Wildlight Photographer, David Bettini. David is a ’sandgroper’ based in Perth, who hails from a vast sheep station in the Gascoyne region of WA. Check out David’s website to buy prints and purchase his latest book on the Pilbara.
Two cheers for Wildlight Photographer, Andrew Rankin! Recently he’s won two AIPP (Australian Institute of Professional Photography) 2008 awards. Andrew was awarded a Silver Distinction for this
black and white image of school children. The picture was part of a massive documentary assignment for Catholic Education. He visited no less than 32 schools in Queensland to create stock images for an entire inhouse image library. Andrew also won a Silver award for this colour image of trucking in Queeensland. The image was commissioned by Maunsell Aecom (civil engineers) who required images of the roads and traffic near Ingham.
Andrew is a very successful commercial and wedding photographer based in Townsville in North Queensland. When he’s not blazing away behind the lens he’s sitting under a palm tree on Magnetic Island - nice! Find out more about Andrew’s photography here.
Wildlight Photographer, Tony Yeates, keeps on moving on with his latest commission by VISA (Singapore) for their Visa Moving Images competition.

The images were used as examples of subject matter to inspire the amateur photographers entering the competition Visa Moving Images. The commission also involved judging the final work from the entrants.
