Musings of a displaced Australian Photographer in Seattle, USA
I’ve gotta say that shooting in and around the Lawrence Mills has been a highlight of my photographic time in this life. You rarely get to visit something so old and historic, let alone take the time to really get to know it and photograph it. Bob Lussier was kind enough to take the time...
