Photographing Waratah

by Doug Hall on June 5, 2011

A little while ago I did a Grid shoot with just my iPhone to show people that it is not about the gear but about the person taking the shot. On this week’s walk I took my trusty iPhone and went shooting at the Waratah Village shopping centre.

Each week “The Grid” features photos of a selected area of the Newcastle & Hunter region, capturing moments that might otherwise go unnoticed.

Doug Hall has been in the driver’s seat for this section of Urban Insider from the beginning. We’d like to congratulate Doug on his recent achievements that will see him relocate to Canberra to pursue photography as a partner with T8 Photography. Thanks so much for all of your wonderful photos over the last few months Doug & we wish you all the best!

This doesn’t spell the end of our collection of unique photos of the Newcastle region… Watch this space for a new take on The Grid. - Ed.
