To Margaret with love | Exhibition launch

Arriving in Margaret River from the UK in January 2005, Bryan Timmons and his wife Claire very soon found themselves in the warm embrace of a special community here in south-west WA.

They have now lived here for twenty very happy years, and count their blessings every day. The photographs in this exhibition, captured over several years, represent Bryan’s impressions and feelings about this unique place and the diversity of its inhabitants. It is his love letter to a community and a place that we are proud to call home.

Photography has been a retirement project for Brian, and it is a happy place in which he can be totally absorbed. It gives him a purpose, as well as a means of self-expression. Working in black and white enables him to see light and form in my subjects in a way that colour cannot.
