Paul Freeman's 'Outback' series continues to explore the rich natural beauty of Australia's rugged landscape. Outback captured our imaginations during a rollicking pictorial ‘boys own’ adventure in the parched farming landscape of Australia. Its successor, 'Currawong Creek' introduced us to the strong bonds forged between mates that work on the land.

With 'Outback Brumby' it was time to capture the wild spirit of the Australian Outback.

Critics were personally affected and moved by his art. “It’s brilliant! I’m quite moved by the images” said Andrew Creagh, editor of DNA Magazine “I was born in the wheat belt of Western Australia so a lot of those shearing sheds and shearers huts are familiar to me; the red dust, the sheep dog, the old utes. … The shoots are really well integrated– some very clever and some hot guys. But mostly, it’s so evocative. It’s great work!..[Paul’s] taken it to another level and I don’t think anyone’s done anything like it!”

For Alasdair Forster, curator of the world-renowned Australian Centre for Photography, “The images in the ‘Outback’ series reveal [Paul’s] understanding that the erotic lives within the individual not the stereotype; that strength lies in embracing one’s vulnerability as much as exercising one’s power; and that the child abides within the man. Playful, candid and sexy, these men epitomise a spirit of outback Australia that fuses larrikin fantasy with moments of introspection that create a subtle counterpoint with the rugged beauty of the land.”
