bendigo3550. is a photoblog by me, Richard Hill. I am 22 years old and I live not far from Bendigo, Victoria, Australia, hence the name of the site. I have had an interest in photography since 2002 and started this site in mid 2005. Several photos I have taken have been published in the Bendigo Advertiser. My main photographic interest is photojournalism, and during 2006 and 2007 I was a photographer for the Bendigo Student Association, taking photos of events including performances by bands such as Rogue Traders, The Living End, End of Fashion, and The Butterfly Effect.

All photos on this site are © 2005-2008 Richard Hill. If you would like to use one of my photos elsewhere, please send me an email - richard@bendigo3550.org.
