Robert Siegman's hut
View of Lucky Bay shacks including Robert Siegman's hut. The photographer describes the Lucky Bay Shacks: "While working out of Cowell I was made aware of the small community of Lucky Bay, which is a group of 135 shacks on a 3.1 km long sand spit. It has a safe swimming beach for children with a small shop, which operates over the summer months. Sixteen kilometers north of Cowell, it has been a popular holiday spot for generations of South Australian families. It is also the departure point of the Sea S.A. Luxury Car and Ferry Service, which runs between Lucky Bay and Wallaroo on the Yorke Peninsula. Some of these shacks have been in the same family for generations but are now under threat as the ferry has been upgraded and there are plans for a new marina. The shacks are considered to be an eyesore and the council want to remove them from the beach. The residents are fighting for survival because they want to preserve their way of life. Some time ago hay bales were placed in front of the shacks to stop erosion by the incoming tides but the council consider this to be an infringement of their lease agreement, which stipulate that no alterations are to be made to the beachfront. War has been declared. Over six visits I was invited into a number of these shacks to record them in case they have to be demolished."
