Miracle: A piece of Ferntree Gully in the Docklands

I am grateful Ferntree Gully News attended the opening of MIRACLE, an exhibition of photographs by Pam Davison, Sue Jackson, Margot Sharman and myself. Thank you to Meg Hellyer for reporting on the show.

'Since the first year of Gully News Barbara Oehring’s photographs have captured moments that make our community special. Recently her photos brought a little piece of Ferntree Gully to the Docklands. An exhibition held at Magnet Galleries at District Docklands featured the work of Melbourne photographers Pam Davison, Sue Jackson, Margot Sharman and Barbara Oehring. Entitled ‘Miracles’ the photographs paid homage to the simple miracles surrounding us every day in homes, and neighbourhoods. Each image showed that even in the toughest of times there is always beauty around and something to be grateful for.
Shown here is Barbara’s photograph ‘Monitor’, one of her four photos exhibited. The ever alert goanna watches, from a tree top in Walbundry Avenue.
Congratulations to all on a wonderful exhibition, and congratulations Barbara!'
