Description


Gary Coombe the Beechworth photographer hesitates when asked about his favourite photo ("Gee, it's like asking who's your favourite child") but admits to pride in his snap of his town's post office and two rainbows (pictured above).


This image is just one of many featured in Beechworth, a new book that showcases both Coombe's photographs and the North East town.


The three-year project began when editor and writer Jennifer Reed, who moved to Beechworth about five years ago, saw and admired Coombe's pictures.


"I thought they would make a great book," Reed said.


"He actually documents life on the street really well with his photos, he's been doing it for a long time.


"It promotes tourism, it documents social change, all sorts of things his photos do."
