Captured during a trip to South Australia's famed Barossa Valley, this piece depicts a quiet moment with a young kangaroo, or joey. While its family grazed nearby, this small sentinel paused, offering a peaceful, direct gaze. The use of gold leaf adds a radiant warmth that echoes the Australian landscape and transforms the photograph into a timeless, intimate portrait. Barossa Joey is a gilded memory of a wild encounter, a moment of connection that feels both personal and universal.
