This property was once a thriving Shearing Shed wall art back in the 1940s, The Owner A friend of mine, has done his best in preserving the detail of what was once a thriving stockyard. I captured this angle of the Shed and blu out the highlights to give it an old-school look, and to show the detail of the old hand-cut dilapidated wood flooring and fixtures. The rusted machinery still cladding to the ceiling of the corrugated tin roof, and the old wooden pylons that hold this structure together.

The Shearer | Shearing Shed Wall Art

Mungo Woolshed was originally built in 1869 and still stands today in the world heritage Mungo National Park in southwestern NSW. Thought to be a dying trade skill, sheep shearers would once shear over 50,000 sheep under the roof of this woolshed when it was at its peak of activity, with enough space to accommodate up to 18 men at a time. Walking through the drop-log shed crafted from local cypress pine, the visible wear and sepia tones of the timber structures were transcendent of the rugged Aussie spirit that worked this space for many years, sweat-drenched and back-breaking. I took this shot at midday on a scorching hot day, the claustrophobia of the heat under the tin roof a reminder of the harsh conditions these workmen were subjected to. 6 x 17 Super Roll Film
