NZ Geographic | Progear 2017 Photo-story Winner | Andrew Stewart

Progear Photo-story 2017 winner Andrew Stewart narrates the work that won him first place in NZ Geographic's photographer of the year competition.

During the last three weeks of Frank Swinney’s life, Andrew Stewart documented the gathering of family and the care he received. “Frank had distinctive hands, riddled with arthritis since his early 20s,” says Stewart.

“These photos acknowledge the role hands and touch played over the last few weeks including storytelling, support, communication, physical work, love and saying goodbye.”
