Ghost-white Trunk on the Emu Track: “Found along the Crouching Emu Walking Track, this pale tree stood out in the morning light — weathered, knotted, and full of character. It’s details like this that make local walks feel fresh every time.” Jacob Dedman.

About Jacob Dedman
Jacob Dedman is the eye behind Digital Journey Photography, where he captures everything from country landscapes to cars and creative portraits.
Based in Tatura, his work blends a love of storytelling with an appreciation for the everyday beauty around regional Victoria.
This small set of photos was taken in and around Tatura — a mix of backyard autumn colour, peaceful foggy paddocks, and quiet corners along the Crouching Emu Walking Track.
Simple scenes, but each one a reminder of how much character this town has, even in the quieter moments.
Autumn Glow in the Backyard: “Tatura’s autumn put on quite a show this year — leaves like these catching the late sun before drifting to the ground. Snapped in a backyard, but felt like something out of a postcard.” Jacob Dedman.
Morning Stillness: “Leaning fence posts and golden grass under a soft fog — a familiar sight on the edge of town. The kind of calm morning that reminds you how peaceful the countryside can be.” Jacob Dedman.
