Step into a world of breathtaking colour through the lens of award-winning cinematographer Michael Haluwana — recognised for his work with National Geographic, BBC, and Sir David Attenborough.

 

Swimming with whale sharks, coming up close and personal with Kimberley crocs or flying over the incredible salt lakes is all in a day's work for Michael. 

Journey through vibrant projections and mesmerising multimedia installations that showcase Western Australia’s landscapes and seascapes in incredible detail.

Landscape Projections – From rugged ranges to contrasting coastlines, experience the land and sky in a new and dynamic way in this installation combining incredible footage with projection mapping technology.

Behind the Scenes – It takes impeccable timing, patience, artistry to capture incredible moments like this. See what it takes to capture aerial, landscape, night sky and wildlife from behind the lens with Michael Haluwana.

The colours, textures, and forms to be encountered in nature are truly awesome.
