Photography by Richard Young
 

Photography has always been a part of my life and I guess that my early experiences with making images really inspired me. The making of images was easy, my father was always a keen photographer and let me use his camera until I bought my first Pentax (KX) in 1971, then OM2 in '77 when I was at University, 1990 came the full Nikon system with the task of taking on professional activities, went digital in 2001 which has been a liberating experience.

TAXI DRIVER

The highly protected cocoon reminded me of the film 'Taxi Driver' with Robert Denero. Taken in Sydney in 2003.

TAXI DRIVER - THE IDENTITY

Going from someplace to somewhere, staring down tunnels and eventually you wonder who is driving you. Taken in Sydney in 2003.

ADVERTISING HORDING in Circular Quay 2004

Fascinating that there is an advertising hording beckoning attention for paintings and the hording has wider exposure than the paintings.
