After surviving one of the most severe attacks, Rodney needed to decide for himself if they were "man-eating monsters". So, in 1964 he got back into the water behind the safety of the impenetrable steel bars of the world's first shark cage which he designed and built himself. Fear immediately turned into fascination; they weren't crazed man-eaters. They were majestic. They were curious. And he wanted to share this message with the world: "sharks are a necessary part of our ocean and we don't have the right the kill them out of fear". And so was born Rodney Fox Shark Expeditions.

His flight path covers 800,000 square kilometres, an area bigger than Belgium, Netherlands and France combined and has called this rugged wilderness home for more than half a century. The 66-year-old runs and lives at Arkaroola Wilderness Sanctuary in the farthest reaches of the Flinders Ranges and says it’s craggy peeks, towering ridge lines and sweeping gorges are best explored from the air.

He famously scales the towering cliffs of the Great Australian Bight where self-installed ropes and ladders aid his perilous launch into the Southern Ocean’s engine room of huge swells. It’s inaccessible and inhospitable, but his obsession is nature’s raw and rugged beauty. Colloquially referred to as the White Highway, these waters are some of Australia’s sharkiest, but Rich’s dedication is driven by the images in his mind’s eye, and he’s enticed into this dangerously beautiful playground every day. He admits it’s equally "the most heavenly and scariest place on earth". Rich’s wonder for the natural world is inspirational. He has an admiration for organic detail most would unconsciously overlook, and his wandering soul has gifted him the patience and artistry to capture this landscape unlike anyone before him. For every enviable day of Rich’s lifestyle spent swimming, surfing and exploring, he has unintentionally photographed his canvas of the Great Australian Bight into a series of digital masterpieces.

For abalone diving duo Tobin and Jonas Woolford, their valiant day job of harvesting wild caught abalone is built on an unbreakable bond of trust. It’s a dangerous profession, but for these experienced ocean men, they have pushed the limits of their physicality diving to the sea floor for eight hours a day for the last 24 years. Jonas and Tobin’s childhood home was Flinders Island - an eleven kilometre long by five kilometre wide private island 17 nautical miles off the coast of the Eyre Peninsula. With a kitchen sink window overlooking the Southern Ocean, a grassy airplane landing strip just beyond the back door and school lessons over the wireless, these brothers were destined for an adventurous future.
