The countryside spell is hard to resist and what better way to prove that than the ‘Outback Beauty’ photos by Kelly Defina. The pictures shot for Fashionising.com is set in the countryside of Australia among the small shacks and wooden houses .Even the leading model Kaye Waterhouse’s outfits are from Australian designers.

Australians can relate to the whole scene -- from the dirty roads to the rusted fences and wooden-carved interiors. Nothing would spell out home in a better way. The photographer tries to rekindle the age-old days in Australia and tries to point out that this still exists in the modern day era.

It is nice to have elements of the past still present in society, even though modernization is still ruling. This series by Kelly Defina is so enchanting because it captures beauty in so many ways, be it the model or the scenery.
