TURNING THE ORDINARY INTO THE MAGICAL – Trent Parke: Become a member of the In-Public street photography collective

Street photography, the candid photography

Newcastle is 160km north of Sydney. Its northern area is full by the presence of sand dunes, marshes and river canals. The secret of Australian wines is the magnificent value for money. For your fragrant travel memory, try heading to Hunter Valley, one of the most famous wine regions of this continent. Elbourne Wines Vineyard https://www.elbournewines.com.au/our-story  is a boutique winery. They work on the farm and in the vineyard, so they are open to tasting only by appointment. As photographer Trent Parke says, do not forget your camera.

He am forever chasing light that turns the ordinary into the magical. Demonstrating techniques and approaches he uses in his photographic storytelling, he leads online course by Magnum Photos. Today, he works primarily as a street photographer.
