Kim Piddington moved to the Corner Country of New South Wales in 1995, and has since been captured by the magic of this remote peak of the state, in its unique position in an embrace if you like, between South Australia and Queensland.

As a full-time employee of the National Parks, most of his images are taken within the little known area of Sturt National Park.

Photography is a new hobby, but none-the-less one he takes seriously. “The area has inspired me.  I really only seriously picked up a camera back in January of this year, up until then I was happy with a point and shot ... and to take the odd photo,” he says.

“It’s always bothered me that you can’t find good shots of The Corner Country and the way the weather was shaping up back in December of last year, I felt that we could be looking at a once in a life time event out here, so I got on ebay and got myself a second hand digital SLR.”

Kim says he’s passionate about promoting the little known Corner Country, amid the misconception that the Australian outback is purely in the Northern Territory, Western Australia or western Queensland.

All the images seen in this gallery have been taken in the past 12 months. “I’m always on the lookout for a new shot, whether I’m working or in town I always have one of my cameras with me.  When I’m working – and a lot of the time it’s by myself – I carry my big photography kit, so no matter what shot I come across, I’m ready.

“A lot of my shots are hit and run; I'll spot something while I’m out and about, jump out take a few shots then go on with what I’m doing.”
