It's a harsh landscape in the Goldfields but there’s such beauty in breakaways and wildflowers

Nallan Station was the perfect base when we explored Cue and the surrounding district in early September.

While we were there we took photographs for Cath and Dave for their website, social media and printed material, creating their very own unique stock library of images. They’ve spent a lot of time and energy creating the station stay with a beautiful campground, the shearers’ quarters and the overseer’s cottage all available for visitors, and now they have photos of the accommodation and camping areas, the breakaways and wildflowers, themselves and their dogs, the cattle and even the resident bowerbird.
