The Age weekly photo gallery highlights Australian regional news
The Age has released its weekly photo gallery for September 19, 2026, documenting various social and regional issues in Australia.
Key stories include the capacity crisis in Melbourne's inner-city cemeteries, prompting the construction of new memorial parks in outer suburbs. In Colac, the abrupt closure of an NDIS office has caused distress for participants facing funding cuts.
In Victoria, motorcyclists are protesting road conditions following the death of 71-year-old Peter Mason due to a pothole near Ballarat. Other featured stories include the self-funding of the film 'Westgate' by Adrian Ortega, the use of an AI avatar by an Australian Catholic University lecturer, and community developments such as the Brougham Street Cohousing Collective.
