A weatherboard shack sits low against a grassy ridge near Bunyan, south of Canberra on the Monaro Highway. Turquoise paint peels back from the cladding in wide strips, exposing grey timber beneath. Four mismatched windows face out across the plain. Corrugated iron roofing lifts at the edges. Dry summer grass fills the foreground. Behind the structure, morning fog swallows the valley floor. Dead trees stand faint on the far hillside, barely visible through the rain.

The series
A Place to Call Home
A series of rural homesteads from the Snowy Monaro region of southern New South Wales, with a few from the Hunter Valley. Most were family homes left behind when a generation moved to town; others when the land could no longer be worked. The buildings are smaller than the industrial sites that anchor most of Lost Collective and tend to be older. Most are timber-framed.
