EDITORS COMMENTS
In this poignant print captured by Dan Peled, we see Farmer Peter "PJ". Cookson diligently checking on his cattle in a feedlot on his Koomalah property near Dirranbandi, Queensland. The date is Wednesday, August 15,2018. However, what strikes us the most about this image is the devastating impact of the ongoing drought that has plagued Mr. Cookson's land for six long years. As we gaze at this photograph, we can't help but feel a sense of empathy towards Farmer Cookson and all other farmers who have been battling against nature's harsh conditions. The barren landscape surrounding him serves as a stark reminder of how unforgiving Mother Nature can be. The severity of the drought becomes evident when we learn that Mr. Cookson's land can no longer sustain his livestock. It highlights not only the immediate struggle faced by farmers like him but also raises concerns about food security and agricultural sustainability in Australia. This image encapsulates the challenges faced by those living off the land in rural areas such as Dirranbandi. It reminds us of their resilience and determination to persevere despite facing immense hardships caused by unpredictable weather patterns. Dan Peled's photograph serves as a powerful visual representation of both human resilience and environmental vulnerability amidst changing climatic conditions.
