Wilcannia was my next brief stop when travelling from Cobar to Broken Hill.
The second photo, the Barrier Highway, on the way to Wilcannia.
Located some 950 km northwest of Sydney, with a population of around 750 people, Wilcannia was in 1890 a thriving town of around 3 thousand people and 13 pubs, the third largest port in NSW, behind only Sydney and Newcastle. Some 90 steamers used the port on the Darling River.
The town is famous for its sandstone buildings, such as the gaol, courthouse and post office, seen on the left, in this photo.
f4, 1/400 sec, ISO 125, 16mm focal length, taken with a Sony DSC-RX100M3.
