As always thank you for posting such interesting films on life in Australia 🇦🇺. Some films bring back memories of growing up in Australia. 👏👏👏

9:08 OH&S where are you? Old mate's fighting a fire in a singlet!

WHAT A TIMLEY video as El Niño gets us already for an Interesting summer

I wonder if at 2:40 the irony of the man watching out for fires with a cigarette in his mouth was lost on the director.

[@jameslamb4573]

5:51 .... and we know that's not a real situation for a bushie because he would have taken the saddle off the horse if he was stopping for a while.

Please MAKE it REAL ! Seemingly duller when shown the 35mm film in 480p. Does NFSA have the 4K scanner provided ??

[@NFSAFilms]

Yes we have few 4K scanners. We also have tens of thousands of films. We're getting there but it's going to take a while. Please keep checking in for new 4K uploads.

We have draught here in the USA, with a risk of fire.

[@AlphaGeekgirl]

With that wind you’re talking about, there would only be a risk of fire if there was also a drought.

[@spire393]

I'm not sure.

4:47 Is that a Bristol?

[@jameslamb4573]

A1950 401 I'd say

[@NFSAFilms]

As noted by @jameslamb4573 probably a 401. One of only 62 cars imported in Australia. Nice shot of the ashtray in service at 6:34 !!
