Bemboka Blues Colour:N/A Utility at WaterfallFaded blue paint peels from a weatherboard wall of a derelict farmhouse in Bemboka, sunlight cutting through broken windows to catch the dust hanging in the still air. The building sits in a region where European selectors first arrived in 1829, and the Imlay Brothers ran cattle here from the 1830s. Part of the A Place to Call Home series.
