A Moment in Photographic History:
Richard Daintree died June 20, 1878. Daintree was an Australian photographer and geologist. He was the first North Queensland Government geologist. Daintree was a pioneer in the use of photography during field trips and his photographs formed the basis of Queensland's contribution to the Exhibition of Arts and Industry in 1871. Half of the landmarks in North Queensland seem to have been named after him including the town of Daintree, Queensland, the Daintree National Park, the Daintree River, the Daintree Rainforest (nominated for the World Heritage List) and the Daintree Reef.

All Images are Copyright ©Michael Rawluk. Just thought I would say that although why anyone would want to use them is beyond me. Well, Colette Amelia does on occasion but she always gives me a kiss after. So, if you want to use an image ... we can work something out ;-)
