I went to Rettallack before Christmas this year to shoot with Sean Pettit, Mike Henituk and Callum Pettit for a new web series Sean is launching called Superproof.  Leigh Powis and Brendan 'Sherpa' Kelly are the brains behind the operation.  It's always a great time at Rettallack.  If you havn't been and you like great food, awesome people and powder, get there.  I love shooting anything and everything there because the environment is photogenic and inspiring.  These are some shots I took of Mike one afternoon after skiing because, well, that's what I love to do.

20130719_barkerfoto_5605I was up in Northern Sumarta, Indonesia for a few months this year.  It was an amazing experience.  I had a job shooting the guests surfing, on a Australian boat for 2 weeks.  Before setting a sail I posted up in this tiny Muslim town, so naturally I walked around with my camera.  The kids were thrilled to see me, and were super into me taking there picture.  In fact they couldn't get enough.  Before long we were singing songs and counting in English and Indonesian.  It was a great day.
