Welcome
to the website of Hugh Brown - adventure photographer
From my very early times in Australia’s north I sought out those places that few would get to see or had never been photographed. I didn’t want to duplicate what everyone else was doing. I’d do much of my work when it was the worst time to be somewhere. By being somewhere at the wrong time of year it helped me produce images that were different.
In 2005 I was hit by lightning after photographing a massive dust-storm east of Marble Bar. Around the same time I spent a week in a swag in Nullagine waiting out the weather to get images of a place that had almost never been photographed. The average daily maximum was 44.6 degrees and it was the hottest January on record.
In 2006 I pushed 130 kilograms of wheelbarrow into Mitchell Falls up in the Kimberley to get images of the river in flood. With colleagues from London, and then friends from Broome, we spent two weeks there and only just managed to get out as a massive monsoonal trough passed through.
In 2007 I narrowly avoided the jaws of a crocodile after my boat sank and I had to swim 50 metres in the dark to the nearest mudbank. On reaching the bank my torchlight silhoetted a crocodile leaning its head against the upturned hull.
It’s impossible to be everywhere and to capture every significant historical event. I hope that with the work I do, that I at least get to record those places and events that very few photographers get the chance to see and experience. I hope that these will one day be an important historical record for Australia and the other countries that I visit.
I hope you enjoy this selection of images.
