“Life is fleeting and transient – live the moment“

Barbara Brown began her journey as a photographer while studying physics at the University of Tasmania.  It wasn’t until retirement from her professional career as an Environmental Advisor approached, that she made a conscious choice to seek out photographic workshops, seminars and mentoring to expand her knowledge and techniques.  Fortunately she is now able to travel and immerse herself in other cultures; observing environments, their history and lives captured through the lens of her camera. By combining strong composition, socio-environmental content, and a journalism style, Barbara creates images that broaden the mind and touch the soul.  She is drawn to the elements that combine to create the whole, rather than grandscapes.
