The Dish - A Symbol of Resilience in Drought-Stricken New South Wales
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this print captured by Dean Lewins, we are presented with a powerful image that encapsulates the harsh reality of drought in New South Wales. The iconic CSIRO Radio Telescope, affectionately known as "The Dish" stands tall against a backdrop of desolation and dryness near Parkes. This photograph serves as a stark reminder of the devastating impact that drought has had on Australia's agricultural heartland. As New South Wales is declared 100% drought affected, farmers in Forbes and Parkes struggle to keep their livestock fed amidst barren fields and red dirt. Amidst this bleak landscape, the presence of The Dish offers a glimmer of hope. It symbolizes not only scientific progress but also resilience and determination in the face of adversity. Just like the scientists at CSIRO who use this radio telescope to explore distant galaxies, farmers too must find innovative ways to adapt and survive during these challenging times. Dean Lewins' composition skillfully juxtaposes the man-made structure with nature's elements - emphasizing both its significance within our society and its insignificance when compared to Mother Nature's power. This thought-provoking image invites us to reflect on our relationship with the environment while highlighting the urgent need for sustainable solutions. Ultimately, through his lens, Lewins captures not just an astronomical marvel but also a poignant representation of human perseverance amidst one of Australia's most pressing social issues – drought.
