Dust billows across the sun-bleached paddocks of Victoria as a vast herd of Senepol cattle winds its way along a well-worn stock route. The rusty-red and deep mahogany coats of the cattle create a living tapestry against the pale, dry landscape, their movement choreographed by skilled stockmen guiding them through the sparse eucalyptus woodland. Gnarled grey gum trees stand as silent sentinels, their branches reaching into a slate-colored sky that hints at the unrelenting challenge of drought and the resilience of Australian agricultural life. The cattle bunch tightly, creating a river of movement that cuts through the golden-brown earth, their hooves kicking up a fine mist of dust that softens the harsh lines of the landscape. Al Mabin's masterful aerial perspective captures the raw essence of cattle mustering - a timeless dance between land, livestock, and the dedicated farmers who shape Australia's agricultural heartland. This image speaks to the scale, endurance, and untamed beauty of pastoral life in the Australian interior.
