EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we are transported to the rugged and picturesque landscape of a cattle and sheep property near St George in south-western Queensland. The star of the image is young Jack Southern, a 12-year-old farm kid who exudes confidence as he showcases his impressive horse skills. It is Sunday, August 10th, 2014, and amidst their school assignments and domestic obligations, children living on rural properties like Jack are entrusted with important daily tasks typically reserved for adults. They learn early on the responsibilities that come with handling and caring for livestock, operating farm machinery, and even driving vehicles. The essence of country life is beautifully captured in this photograph - from the sprawling ranch dotted with grazing cattle to the sturdy fence enclosing it all. Horses stand tall beside Jack as if they were his trusted companions in this vast outback setting. This image serves as a testament to the resilience and resourcefulness instilled in farm kids at an early age. Their connection to nature runs deep as they navigate through their upbringing surrounded by animals such as bulls, steers, sheep (rams and ewes), calves - each playing a vital role in sustaining agricultural practices. Photographer Dan Peled masterfully captures not just a moment frozen in time but also an entire way of life that defines rural Australia. It's an ode to hardworking farmers raising future generations rooted in tradition while embracing modernity on these expansive properties nestled within South Queensland's stunning landscapes near St George.
