Q5 Photographer's Interviews for Slice of FNQ

Queensland Festival of Photography 5 - Cell Art Space, Cairns

We are happy to have taken part in this statewide biannual photography festival and be one of many venues around Cairns that has one running during April 2014.  You can see a list here.  At Cell we asked photographers to submit their favourite slice of FNQ and living up North amongst the rainforest.  We had a wonderful response but being a petite sized gallery we had to narrow it down to the collection you see today.

Alex Pirez, Donna Rondeau, Georgina Friend, Hans Schmidt, Heather York, Ian Hocking, Jason Van't Padje, Josie Fraser, Larry Russell, Melissa Halliday, Rosslyn McNamara, Sandy Edgar.

We asked participating photographers 5 questions to gain some insight into their work and to share with us any tips they have for other photographers.  Read their responses after the break.
