A detail in the coastal rock that I'd noticed whilst on a poodle walk. I would pass it by every time we walked to Dog Beach. It recalled the abstract modernist photographers ---eg., Aaron Siskind--- associated with the abstract expressionist movement.
Siskind emphasize the modernist concern with the flatness of the picture plane and his approach to picture making emphasised close-up framing, as well as an emphasis on texture, line, and visual rhymes to creating abstract images of found objects in the real world.
