2024 Calendar Supreme Winner
Charmaine Murphy's Watching the Sunrise Before Starting Work was awarded the place of Supreme Winner in the 2023 LandMarks Photo Collection. On the morning the photo was taken, Charmaine and her husband had made an early start to muster ewes before the heat started. While waiting for her husband to reach the bottom of the paddock, Charmaine noticed the beautiful sunrise and her dogs Sharp and Quiz both looking in the same direction, and took the shot with the camera she often takes with her. The image appeared on the front cover of the 2024 PGG Wrightson Calendar.
