Melbourne photographer Morganna Magee has created this engaging series which depicts the women in their professional roles and “off-duty”. Shot over a 4 week period, Morganna says, “I was initially granted access to meet the women within their homes with the idea that the informal environment would allow me to create an engaging portrait. After speaking with my first subject I realised that rather than feel uncomfortable within their workspace, these women thrived on the work they did and the chance to make a difference within the community”.

Rage Against the Light - Markus Andersen
The official Australian book launch and exhibition of 'Rage Against The Light' by Sydney-based photographic artist Markus Andersen opens next week at Sydney's Black Eye Gallery and is definitely worth checking out. These images have multiple layers that draw you in and invite you to linger in the shadows. The longer you look the more you see.
Markus says the work "explores my intoxication with natural mild and the darkness/dark corners comprised of this mild. Subjects stuck in the dual forces of light and shadow continue to be on the coronary heart of the work, the interplay of those elements within the architecture or panorama create order from discordance. 'Rage Against The Light' emphasises the dramatic nature of extreme or subdued mild and my persevered courting and fascination with the challenge".
