Landscape photography Cameron Corner: The surveyed north-west corner of Outback NSW, Cameron Corner, is the point at which the states of NSW, Queensland and South Australia meet and it is this corner that forms the north-west boundary of Sturt National Park - one of the largest National Parks in NSW at 340,000 ha. In the north-west corner of NSW is The Corner Country which covers Sturt National Park and the towns of Tibooburra, Milparinka and Cameron Corner. It is a vast and rugged area which is quintessential Outback Australia.

Milparinka is located 39 km south of Tibooburra just of the Silver City Highway (about 1,500 km from Sydney). All around the red dusty soils of Outback New South Wales stretch to the horizon. When gold was discovered in 1880 this became a thriving town but today it is a shadow of its former self. A reminder that only the hardest of human beings can live in such difficult conditions. No visit to Outback New South Wales can really be considered complete without pausing at Milparinka and thinking about the lives of the early settlers.

It is a photographer's paradise providing historic towns and sites and is the country that Charles Sturt and his expedition travelled through on their quest to find the 'inland sea' in the 1840's. The area includes Depot Glen that provided water for the expedition party. If you want to photograph outback Australia, The Corner Country is a must for the Outback photographer.

The drive from Tibooburra to Cameron Corner takes the visitor through a diverse landscape including the Waka Claypan, past Fort Grey which was provisions stockade built by explorer Charles Sturt for his inland expeditions, and on to the Corner and the worlds longest fence; the 5,000+ km Dog Fence which was constructed to keep roaming Dingos of the north and west out of the pastoral lands of NSW.

For anyone interested in Australian landscape photography, Cameron Corner is atop destination that is filled with iconic outback scenes, colonial history and an amazing National Park.
