sea abstract #1

An attempt at abstractions from the sea in an attempt to shift to a  more expressive  kind of photography.

This was made from the breakwater created to protect for the new all weather boat ramp  near Whalers Resort at Encounter Bay, Victor Harbor.  The boat lobby--recreational fishermen--- is quite powerful. 

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.
