Australia: Outback People Pt. 1
Outback Characters.While bicycling the Australian Outback I was constantly meeting the numerous locals or people who have made this part of the world their new home. Its a hardy or eclectic type of person who will make the choice between the Outback as their home from the city. It can be a lonely place out their in the Outback for some, but for many it is a place that recharges the individual's soul and shapes the character in all. The man pictured here is one such person who had made the Outback his home. His Dingo-cross dog was as much a character as he was, it was a warm and welcome feeling to meet these two, while bicycling with my cycling companion Carsten north of Coober Pedy. It was taken right at the 9600Km long "Dingo fence", this dog pictured had the rights of way.
