I'm not well up on photographer Rankin's celeb work (apparently he's snapped everyone from Kylie to Tony Blair), but I did go and see his take on Australia at the Proud Gallery today. His big, brash style - lots of extreme close-ups, lots of flash against a darkened sky and lots of taking directly into the sun - works well for a country that shares some of the same characteristics, but the collection felt too small to be coherent or to truly capture the diversity of this enormous land.
