‘ALICE_SPRINGS’ by GRACE_R
RELOAD - 04 DEC 2017
"This shoot was inspired by my return home to Alice Springs, where I grew up. I knew the natural red landscape and wild bush would be a great backdrop for a shoot and I couldn't wait to capture this. Going home is very grounding for me and I wanted to experience this coupled with the empowerment shooting for I Shot Myself gives me. The day I arrived home was grey and rainy - rare in Alice - so I decided to capture a few shots that day to add variety to my shoot and to portray the changeable and sometimes volatile nature of the environment. The day I shot in the bush I drove 20kms out of town before I found somewhere relatively prickle free and with sand I could use for my shoot. It was about 37 degrees that day and shooting outside was HARD! I was so pleased with the results though and the gorgeous red sand and unique bush backdrop was well worth it."
