"Noted woman photographer Olive Cotton is the wife of Ross McInerny, a bird-loving farmer whose 'Spring Forest' property is near Cowra, N.S.W. By way of a change, John Meredith persuaded Olive to pose in front of a camera instead of her usual stance behind one. With her beloved twin-lens Rollieflex, Olive praised this shot as the first portrait of herself in which she did not look self-conscious!"
