                                                            The web site of my Centenary of WW1 project memories in place was launched on 11/11/11 (centenaryofWW1.com)

                                                            Welcome to my site: a documentation of my continuing photographic journey. I'm based in Brisbane, Australia.

                                                            'He is a product of a working class family (his father was a long distance truck driver) and Page grew up to have a similar appreciation for travel - not as a leisure pursuit but with purpose in mind. This artist has always known his position as being ‘on the edge’: quietly observing, engendering trust in his subjects to chronicle decisive moments of struggle and dispossession, capturing the dignity of lives not usually taken notice of.'
