This is an excellent series of doco/interviews, a brilliant collaboration between RMIT Photography and Museum of Australian Photography. The interview gives great inisight into one of this country's most important photographer and it's not just about architectural photography. John's career spans music photography, advertising, his incredible personal series on lost cities and of course architectural photography. I was delighted to see his iconic 1980's 'Get Wrecked on Keppel' campaign feature. This was controversial at the time...and still seems to be in some circles, with accusations the images are, to quote 'sexualised, sexist and demeaning to women' , personally I don't see it, nor did the participants feel that. It's also worth noting that the Rockhampton Museum of Art acquired the Great Keppel campaign images for there permanent collection. #nickybuckley
