THE remote Australian Outback accounts for most of the land mass of the island continent, yet over 90% of Australia’s population lives in and around the coastal cities, primarily in the south and the east. Summer temperatures of 50°C can make the Outback a challenging place to live and work, with most of the employment coming from the ever-growing mining industry.
Tourism is on the rise, however, making the Australian Outback an attractive travel destination for photographers and road trippers.
