Australian documentary and fine art photographer
Nick Bedford is a fine art and documentary photographer based in Brisbane, Australia.
From late May into early June this year, my brother and I in his Patrol and his mate Micky, Jimmy and Micky’s father in a Hilux embarked on a 4WD wild camping journey into the outback through Queensland, South Australia and the Northern Territory.

My binder of negatives is growing, but I'm finding that some genres of photography I practice are better suited to high resolution colour raw files, so I've decided to pick up my Leica M again and use that for colour work where appropriate.

With a few weeks break from street photography comes some subtle changes in my routine. I've been using VSCO's Kodak Portra 400 for any colour photography for a while, but I've been feeling like I needed something different so today I'm giving their Fuji 800Z colour film preset a go with a few pictures. It's a little less "clean" than Portra 400 and has an interesting feel. What do you think?
I haven't been on a hike for months so it was great to get out in the open and away from the city (the State Forest near Lake Somerset). This is a rare colour post. I've never been able to reconcile black and white with the colours and shapes of nature.
Needed a bit of colour on my blog. And the light this morning was beautiful. Perfect Sunday.
