Whale Boats racing and fire
Sunday 22 February 2010 was an interesting day in Warrnambool. The Australian National Whale Boat Championships were held on the Hopkins River and a fire started at the Criterion Hotel in Kepler Street.
For the past few years I have been working on documenting Australia's towns to create a visual resource for the future. I often rely on the work of John T Collins or the Rose and Valentine post card series for images of our past. I look to update the photographic recording of Australian places and events and upload a selection to the National Library of Australia's Pictureaustralia project.
