a new way of seeing things.”

And we've got some talent

Grenville Turner has just released a wonderful new book entitled "Akubra is Australian for Hat". The book is a series of images depicting Australian people and their hats, as well as comments about their lives and why they wear their hat. The reasons are many. It provides shade from the Australian sun, acts as a fan on a hot day, is an effective fly swot and can even be used as a jug to water the horse. 

Wilpena Pound Resort's very own Keith Rahseed graces the cover of the book wearing his Akubra RM, uniquely styled with pink band. Keith reckons he wears his hat on his mum's advice when he was a kid... "She used to say you wear a hat to keep your brains inside your head and not to fry 'em."

You'll find Grant Hunt inside the book too. Available for sale now in book stores Australia-wide.
