Part of collection: Simon O'Dwyer collection of photographs.; Title supplied by photographer.; Also available in an electronic version via the Internet at: http://nla.gov.au/nla.pic-vn3085565. "Melbourne's drag king community put on their best pants for their annual gala night in Prahran to celebrate arts achievements in the gay community. Assigned by The Age newspaper to cover this particular section of the community, I created a mobile studio on the premises to record the personalities of the evening. Halfway through recording my subjects I was bombarded with the humoured protests of the drag queen community who believed they were more beautiful and interesting. Photographed on a Mamiya RZ camera under portable studio lights."--Simon O'Dwyer

Socio-economic status and outcomes for patients with age-related macular degeneration
Objectives: to explore disparities in severity of baseline disease, treatment completion and treatment outcomes among patients with wet age-related macular degeneration (AMD) receiving anti-vascular endothelial growth factor therapy by socio-economic status (SES) and distance from home to hospital. Study design: retrospective cohort study.Methods: data from clinic records of 756 wet AMD patients receiving treatment for wet AMD with aflibercept between May 2013 and Jan 2017 were obtained. Area SES (using Index of Multiple Deprivation (IMD) 2015) and distance from hospital (dichotimised >=10 vs <10km), were derived from anonymized postcodes. Univariate and multivariable logistic regression models were used to identify associations of area deprivation and distance from hospital at baseline, with visual acuity (VA) at baseline, treatment completion and treatment outcome.Results: living in the most deprived compared with less deprived areas was associated with a significantly higher risk of presenting with severe reduction in VA (OR=3.59; 95% CI=1.39-9.27; P=.01). This association was maintained after adjustment for age, gender and distance from hospital.On univariate analysis, delayed treatment completion was more likely in those living in most deprived areas (OR=2.80; 95% CI=1.21-6.47; P=.04), though this association was attenuated after adjustment for age, gender and distance from hospital.No association was observed between SES and treatment outcomes or between distance from hospital and baseline VA, treatment completion or treatment outcome.Conclusion: this study found poorer baseline VA among people with wet AMD from more deprived areas. This work suggests a need for earlier identification of AMD among more deprived populations
Standing in his backyard Ted holds all that's left of his pet dog in a tray [picture] /
Part of collection: Firestorm 2003.; Title supplied by photographer.; Also available in an electronic version via the Internet at: http://nla.gov.au/nla.pic-vn3124819. One day after the Australia Day fires in East Gippsland I photograph Cobungra resident Ted Cole. The fire swept up from the valley forcing Ted to hide under the floor of the half built house he's building by hand. For twenty minutes the fire raged at him from four directions and he thought more than once he would die. Hearing the dying barks of his dog, which he had placed in the shed for safety, Ted faced the heart breaking sight of his pet's disintegrated body, the bones being all that is left behind."--Simon O'Dwyer
