Photographs taken on a trip to meet Oil Free Seas activists on Kangaroo Island, South Australia in the Great Australian Bight.

The Great Australian Bight is a pristine wilderness, home to a critical whale sanctuary, tight-knit coastal communities, hundreds of kilometres of towering cliffs and more unique species than the famous Great Barrier Reef. But the beautiful Bight is at risk. Big oil, led by Norwegian company Statoil, has eyes on the Bight. If their plans go ahead, the threats from an oil spill, deafening seismic blasting and pollution are all too real.
