Ben Wilkinson "I find that alongside my wife, family and friends, photographing and exploring the Tasmanian Wilderness gives me a greater appreciation of life. A simple camera takes me away from it all and allows me to just be, it allows me to get caught in a moment where nothing else matters. The combination of a camera and a quiet moment alone to witness and capture natures theater are priceless moments in an otherwise hectic world. Why capturing moments in nature is so valuable is the knowledge that they are reserved for those who make the effort to go out and witness them. My photographs are my memories of these moments and the enjoyment I had while watching the greatest show on earth."
