Rosetta Head

This is the western side of the base of  Rosetta Head, Victor Harbor and so is a part of Petrel Cove. 

 We often walked the dogs length base of Rosetta Head until we could get no further. This was late afternoon light. 

rock study #6

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. 

Kings Head rocks

I carried the 5x7 monorail around to Kings Head early one morning before I came to realise that I was really making a rod for my own back using a monorail. 

After this  exercise I started using a 5x4 Linhof field camera when I had to walk a far away from the  car as I  I could carry the Linhof  in a back pack.
