Never assume anything.
11-November-2009
This was 1988 and the Fitzgerald Inquiry into the Queensland Police was at the front of almost everyones minds. I was using a lot of infra-red b+w film documenting drinking culture at night, and wanted to see what it looked like for daytime street photography.
A Koori group was camped at the front of The Reserve Bank building in King George Square. Two police officers were walking towards them with intent so I started walking in too. A few of them noticed me as I got there. I didn't expect the flower, the gesture or the mood. it was a lesson for me about assumption.
