Thankyou so much Jamon!! seriously helpful 
So are these ok for Topic sentences 1 and 3? - I personally don't really like 3 at all. 
Paragraph 1 Topic sentence: The harsh and isolated environment of Australia is a key element portrayed by distinctive images to convey its
severe impact on the experience of individuals associated with it.
Yep this works well, but I'd expect you to clarify what you mean by severely. If you are attaching negative connotations, be specific with that, severe doesn't necessarily mean positive or negative!Paragraph 3 Topic Sentence: Human experiences are also influenced by human emotions, which emerge as consequence of hardship,
in a way that impacts negatively on the individual. These emotions may include fear and anxiety, or indifference, and are presented effectively through visual representations.
I actually like this a lot! I think the idea is great, perhaps the expression in the first bit could do with a polish, maybe:
The human experience is often influenced more by bad times than good, with emotions that emerge in difficult times impacting negatively on the individual.
Hmm, that wasn't perfect either, but you get what I mean! Just keep trying the same thing in different ways until you find one that you like!Also, when you say REASON for distinctive images, what exactly do you mean? is it something I would incorporate into my body paragraphs or do I add it to my intro and conclusion?
Also #2, if I the question was something like last year's q: Distinctive images offer a variety of perspectives on the world or 2012's: Interesting views on society are conveyed by the distinctively visual, how could I adapt my structure and thesis to fit?
So when I say the REASON for them, I mean, what is the author trying to achieve? What are they trying to communicate? Why are they giving you that image in the first place, and why are they choosing to use an image to portray that idea? Every text is made with a purpose, and every technique is utilised (in this case to create a distinctive image) for a reason
Easy fixes for those questions:
2015: perspectives on the world -> perspectives on the Australian landscape
2012: interesting views on society -> interesting views on the Australian experience
You can see how I'm just redefining the key terms in my question to mean specific things, as suits me
this is the approach you should take to adapting to any question!
