"Taking a walk to stretch the legs in between shearing and I stumbled across this amazing tree. Some have suggested it marks a special site. Others think perhaps an aboriginal ring tree. Another, a simple Bimble Box Tree with overlapping branches. Whatever it is, I’ve never seen a noose like branch or twisted tree like it" - 📸 Noona NSW, this entry is titled 'Circle of Life'.

"At three weeks of age, our second son visited our station for the first time. Safe in dads arms, he had his first taste of a outback sunset whilst his two year old brother wanted to show him all the wonders of the land. The simple things make captured moments like this so special: wildflowers, sunset, animals and a father with his two most precious things, his boys." - 📸 Noona NSW, this entry is titled 'Next Generation'.

"Checking fence lines at sunset, there’s always time to stop and pick wildflowers. Our two year old son already has a connection to the land. He not only appreciates nature, has a true love of animals great and small but wants to help dad on the station at every chance. Raising our next generation of farmers, one sunset at a time" - 📸 Noona NSW, this entry is titled 'Sunset wildflowers'.
