Constructed by the Railways Department in 1897 – 1898, the intention was that the dam would provide plentiful fresh water for the locomotives that would soon be steaming along the new railway linking Kalgoorlie with Malcolm.
Coolgardie based contractors were engaged to build the dam at a tendered price of 42,000 pounds. But the government engineers had miscalculated the depth of the bedrock that would need to be blasted away in order to construct the concrete wall. The actual work ended up costing 62,000 pounds. The contractor's biggest challenge was getting a vast quantity of powdered cement to Niagara from Coolgardie where it had been railed from Perth. The distance to Niagara was some 220km and they decided that the only way to efficiently transport the cement would be by camel train.
By the time the dam was completed, it had accumulated very little water due to a lack of rainfall. To make matters worse a plentiful supply of good underground water had been located at nearby Kookynie.
In 1900 a journalist writing for the North Coolgardie Herald noted that "the fact that 60,000 pounds of good government money was swallowed up in constructing the white elephant need not distract from your enjoyment of the sight. You may console yourself with the reflection that there may be a time when the reservoir will be put to some use."
Such a time was not to come, however for over a century this oasis in the wilderness has provided a picnic, swimming and camping spot for visitors and locals alike. The dam took its name from the nearby town of Niagara, which was booming at the time of the dam's construction.

Last week, I had a free morning to spend in downtown Amsterdam. The weather was misty, with no sign of clearing up before noon when I had to leave, so instead of postcard-perfect shots, I decided to go exploring. I set out from my hotel looking for something unique and ended up on the Leidseplein, where I stumbled upon this statue. Although I visit Amsterdam often, I’d never seen this piece before—probably because I rarely get the chance to wander around the city, especially on the Leidseplein. The statue, featuring two hands, is a bronze memorial dedicated to journalist Peter R. de Vries, who lost his life in 2021 due to his investigative work. Unveiled in 2024 as the "Monument of Tolerance," it symbolizes the values of freedom and tolerance, celebrating de Vries's legacy in the fight for justice. It stands as a reminder of the resilience and commitment to truth held by journalists in the face of adversity – Amsterdam, the Netherlands
My uncle just passed away a week ago and he was a journalist and well known historian in the Netherlands. I am receiving articles about him and the one mentioned him as a "gentleman journalist". This scene today at the Remembrance Day Ceremony made me think of him. There is a fine line between recording events as a journalist and respecting the significance of the moment. This soldier was doing his best to reflect on the moment ahead of him while behind him the media was making sure others who could not make it to the cenotaph, could see it on tv or read about it in the paper. I wonder how my uncle would have handled this moment knowing that the Canadian soldiers helped give his family freedom in the Netherlands.
As a photojournalist, Sam Hood provided photos for newspapers including the Sydney Mail, Australasian, Daily Guardian, Sun and Sydney Morning Herald. He covered many of Australia’s landmark events, but on this occasion Hood captured a more personal moment. While covering a polo match, he photographed a man — perhaps a fellow journalist — asleep at the wheel of a car. Hood’s composition leaves the match in the background hanging like a ‘dream bubble’ over his head. PXE 789 (v.50) collection.sl.nsw.gov.au/record/nQRq2gd1/PaDqvXpLqwgL2

Unknown female journalist, at a former car park off Venns Lane, Hereford, Herefordshire, England, United Kingdom. Date unknown, but circa October 1987 to circa March 1989.
About the photograph.
This lady is a journalist, she is a reporter for a local radio station. That is all I can tell, I don’t know what radio station she worked for, who she is, or anything like that. I think her car was unmarked and did not show company logos, even if it did, I don’t remember as it was like a long time ago.
Between 1987 to 1989, I attended a college course in graphic design, at a local college which is only about 5 to 10 minute walk from where this photograph was taken.
In those days, computers were mainly for work like in offices, as computers at home, for personal use was like a luxury not everybody can afford. While the Internet exists, it was only for the military, universities, offices, and was mostly text based information. The World Wide Web and browsers for home and personal use didn’t take off until the 1990s. The early mobile phones were mainly shaped like a brick and was only used for voice communications.
Therefore there was no Twitter, no Facebook, no social media like you have today.
I was unaware of what was going on, it was only when I noticed an activity outside, either when I was coming back to the art building from break time, or from the window at the top floor, and I went to ask one of my tutors, to enquiry what is going on.
That was when I was told college students were going on a march through city centre, in a protest as the British government which was planning on scraping grants and replacing it with loans for students.
I asked my tutor if I could be excused from my class, which was studying graphic design, and I really wanted to be a photographer, so my tutor agreed. Thankfully I had my Minolta X-700 35mm camera with me, and I asked if I could have some more spare rolls of film from the supply cupboard. Permissions granted, I went to grab as many as I could fill my pockets with, and off I went.
The march had not started yet, the students were gathering around at a car park off Venns Lane, which is now used as a private hospital called Nuffield Health Hospital. (One of my black and white photos in my Photostream, under the title “Cops” was taken at the same place.)
I started looking around for subjects to shoot, noticed her, and took a photo of her.
As far as I know, she was one of the very few journalist who were using the car park to get ready, just like the students and the police were getting ready, it was the starting point. It was not a big national news, just a local news.
Afterwards, I went along on the march, trying to take photos of the protest. You can see more of those photos in either two of my albums, one is titled Black and White or the other one titled Minolta X-700.
When it was done, I developed and printed the photographs myself, and thankfully still have the prints. I simply scanned the prints using my Brother multifaction printer/fax/scanner, and saved the image in my computer, for uploading to Flickr.
What is this all about?
At that time, the British government under then Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher, had decided that funding to help students should be done by means of loans, which would need to be paid back by the students when they leave college and get jobs, not by grants.
But students all over the UK are not happy with this, and are protesting against this idea. The college I attended was one of the colleges that took part in the protest.
That is why they’re saying ”Grants Not Loans.”
I have a few photos of the protests in two of my albums, just look in either Black and White or Minolta X-700.

Male journalist, at a factory, somewhere in Worcester, Worcestershire, England, United Kingdom. Date unknown, but circa 1992-94.
About the photograph.
This is a local newspaper journalist, the one seen here with the camera, attending an event at a local factory.
The factory is one of those companies that makes either the majority of the parts or even an engine, for an open wheeled single seat racing car, like a Formula One car, which you can see in the right side of the photo. The factory allowed a group of school children to attend a tour, to talk about engineering works on stuff like that, possibly to let those kids think about their future.
Because of this, the local newspaper sent us, that’s him and me, to attend and report about it. I’ll explain why I’m there in the next section below.
What is this all about?
I am a deaf person, I attended a deaf school ran by hearing teachers, and in my last year (1985-86) at school, my class were learning about jobs and work. The teacher and the visiting career advisor were to tell us about jobs, like difference between part-time and full-time, and stuff like that. They also talk to us about what kind of jobs and future we wanted to have, and also to see what needs to be done after school. Like to see if arrangements can be set up for some to get a job after leaving school, or if some of us need to attend college.
I admit my first choice was to become a diver, but my teacher dismissed it as something I can’t do because of my being deaf. I had at least 3 or 4 other ideas, but all were shot down. It is easy to look back and realised that was discrimination.
My next idea was to become a photographer. I really wanted to, I want to be a photographer, and wanted to study photography. Again, he dismissed it, but I decided to put my foot down, and stick with it. I keep trying to ask for a college course in photography, they keep asking me to rethink my options.
As time was running out, they all agreed to make arrangements for me to attend a one-year college course, which is really more of a further education course. Once again, I keep asking for a college course in photography after that course.
Finally they got me a two year college course, but it was more of training course. I had three days on-the-job training, working for a professional photographer, and two days at college, studying graphic design.
After leaving college, I struggled with trying to get a job in photography, because during those days, the early 1990s, there were still discrimination against disabled people.
I think maybe around 1993, the Job Centre got me a short term training course, in helping improve my job seeking chances, and I managed to ask if I could have a volunteer work in photography, and somehow got a placement with a local newspaper’s photography department.
I was there, familiarise myself with how photojournalist work, and learn the ropes. I was told to go with this journalist to attend this event, and while he was taking photographs for the newspaper, I was taking photographs of him for myself.
It was only a few weeks, but enough for me to want to push harder, and try to get into photography as careers, even if I still face discrimination.

Last night members from the United States 75th Ranger Regiment located and liberated captured photojournalist reporter Jake March. March was captured by Mujahideen forces in northern Afghanistan last September.
March has been embedded with Marines, Army, and even the elusive Special Forces groups including Green Berets and accompanying Navy SEALs on several missions throughout Iraq, Afghanistan, and locations in Africa.
While missing his fellow reporters tapped every local contact they had in the attempt to locate him ultimately resulting in several leads which led to his rescue.
March says he now plans to take some time at home before re-embedding with American forces on the front lines.
