The harsh reality of the ongoing drought in Hawke's Bay has been captured on camera by a young budding photographer.

Twelve-year-old Selby Jowsey lives on his family farm in Kereru -- 45 kilometres west of Hastings -- where he has been documenting the changing landscape and the extra effort to keep animals alive.

Sally Round from Country Life spoke to the Jowseys about his pictures.
