- Summary:
-
"Assigned to photograph the annual immunisation week I arrived at a preschool full of nervous parents waiting with their children for a shot. Sitting with the doctor I had photographed a dozen children when this little boy wearing a thick jumper arrived and sat down. The doctor was unable to get the sleeve high enough for the procedure, so his mother removed the garment to reveal a t-shirt with the hand made word of Superman. As the needle pricked his skin his faced grimaced in pain creating a beautiful moment. The image appeared across page five of The Age newspaper. Photographed with a Nikon F5 camera and 35mm lens on Fuji 800ASA film."--Simon O'Dwyer.
