Winner - Ben Saraceni

‘Setting up camp - Yokine Bushland, circa 1953’

The photo shows Ben’s two brothers with a group of friends standing in front of a Ford at a bush clearing in Yokine, miles away from the nearest bitumen road.

Ben writes about life in the 1950s being poles apart to life as we know it today, with Australians adjusting to life after the war, and when rationing had almost disappeared.

It offers an insight into simpler times and an early view of Yokine, which is very different to how many of us know the area today as a full developed suburb.
