What is your name?
Steven Rhall.
I’m hosting @wearephotograpy this week as part of various Australian rotation curation twitter accounts participating in NAIDOC week. I am one of the Indigenous Australians twitter users taking part.

NAIDOC is an acronym for (National Aboriginal and Islander Day Observance Committee) Week. More information is available here http://www.naidoc.org.au and here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NAIDOC_Week

What sort of photography do you do?
All sorts of photography and in fact, try not to be limited by the definition of what is, or what might be photography. Were these boundaries might fall interests me.

In recent years a commercial practice developed from photographing bands. Learning the craft via commercial programs at Uni, helped further develop this but my own personal practice has came through as something that seems more sustainable and worthwhile concerning a passion for photography. Photography, or more broadly Photomedia, is the basis or vehicle for exploring and/or expressing ideas at the moment.

How long have you been shooting?
About 15 years or so.

What's your favorite piece of gear? (for example, Lens, Bag, Camera, Tripod, any thing you really love to work with)
Probably my Crumpler Back Pack. I’ve had it for almost 10 years and it’s carried me and my gear many miles without falling apart. I like how it can be rearranged to suit a variety of gear and doesn’t look so much like a camera bag.

Where can we find you? Twitter account/s, blogs, galleries, any and all web presence that you feel comfortable sharing.

Is there a Twitter account you would really like to see take over @WeRPhotography for a week?
I really enjoy the work and ideas of fellow Melbournian @s2zart who I think has a lot to contribute.
