Beneath an expansive blue Queensland sky, a livestock agent surveys a diverse herd of cattle grazing on sun-bleached pasture near Goondiwindi. Dressed in classic rural workwear - blue denim jeans and a navy jacket - the agent stands with his back to the camera, speaking on a mobile phone while assessing the cattle. The herd presents a rich palette of bovine colors - deep black, rich chocolate brown, creamy white, and russet red - representing multiple breeds typical of Australian cattle country. Sparse eucalyptus trees frame the scene, their silvery-green foliage providing minimal shade in the intense summer heat. Each beast stands solidly on the dry grassland, ear tags glinting, representing the careful management and genetic diversity of modern Australian cattle farming. The image captures a quintessential moment of rural agricultural practice - a livestock professional making critical assessments in the vast, unforgiving landscape of Queensland's cattle country.
