From September 10 until October 4, a stunning collection of images celebrating Lord Howe Island will be on show at The Gallery, Hyatt Regency Sydney for the 'Reef to Cloud Nine' exhibition.

The exhibition is a collaboration between photographic enthusiast, Channel 7 Weather Presenter James Tobin, Canon photographers Scott Portelli and Danielle Harte, as well as talented Lord Howe Island locals Ian Hutton, Jack Shick and Izak Bennet.

For the past decade, James has travelled to all corners of Australia for this job and over that time developed a keen interest in landscape and nature photography. As an ambassador of Lord Howe Island, earlier this year he teamed up with Canon professional Scott Portelli on a photo expedition to capture the pristine beauty of the island.

“The colour palette of Lord Howe Island is like nowhere else,” James said.

“Having the opportunity to team up with Scott to capture the beauty of a place I love, really was a dream come true.

“I'm not a professional photographer – but having the right equipment and guidance made a huge difference to the quality of images I was able to capture.

“The Gallery is such a beautiful space, it's a privilege to be able to share my passion for photography with fellow enthusiasts and guests who visit throughout the month,” James said.

Each month, a new gallery of work is exhibited to celebrate and showcase Australia's finest photographic talent in partnership with Canon Australia.

From Sport to Fashion; Landscapes to Light – there's something to amaze and delight all tastes and interest areas. Upcoming exhibitions include 'Bon Appetite' by Petrina Tinsley and 'Away from the Black Line' by the Canon Collective.
