EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the harsh reality of the ongoing drought in New South Wales, Australia. Against a backdrop of dry and barren land, a sprinkler valiantly waters a garden, symbolizing the desperate measures being taken to combat dwindling water levels. Warragamba Dam, an essential source of water for Sydney residents, has plummeted to a concerning 54.8% capacity. The image serves as a stark reminder of the severity of the situation as it showcases how even everyday activities like gardening are impacted by this environmental crisis. The introduction of stage one water restrictions from June 1 marks an unprecedented event in over ten years, highlighting just how rapidly dam levels have declined. Dean Lewins' photograph encapsulates both the vulnerability and resilience exhibited during times of adversity. The sprinkler's steady stream amidst arid surroundings represents hope amid despair—a small act that signifies determination to preserve what little resources remain. As viewers reflect on this powerful image, they are reminded not only about their own responsibility towards conserving water but also about the urgent need for collective action against climate change and its devastating consequences. Dean Lewins' lens captures more than just an ordinary scene; it immortalizes a critical moment in history when communities must unite to protect our most precious resource—water.
