Experimenting:
But I'm not sure at this stage.
The sea is the darker side of the coastal environment. It is dangerous. So the images need to be darker.

Another abstraction made just before the early spring storms:
The rock is granite and the location near Petrel Cove is difficult to get to and dangerous because of the surging waves.
I scoped this just before the stormy weather from the south west swept in:
I tried to get back to the site for most of the week, but the high tide, and the large wave surges prevented access. It was too dangerous. I finally managed to reshoot it with a medium format camera this morning.
Maybe a 5x4 reshoot in black and white next?
This was made on one of the last poodle walks with Ari along Jetty Rd, which runs along the side of Rosetta Head to a jetty at the northern foot of Rosetta Head.
It was raining at the time and I have been meaning to returning to reshoot it with my film cameras. But there has been no rain since.
A late afternoon storm
We got back to the car just before the rain came in.
One stormy morning along the coast:
The seas were very rough.
The bark of an eucalyptus in the late afternoon light.
This tree is on Solway Crescent and I pass it each time I wander down to the beach at Encounter Bay on a poodle walk.
Made on a recent poodle walk near Kings Head, Waitpinga, on the Fleurieu Peninsula.
The problem with this is that I cannot recall where this quartz is exactly. So I cannot re-photograph it with a film camera.
This is from the 2013 archives. I was still living in Adelaide. then and the photo was made around the time of the Clipsal 500 car race at Easter.
It was hand held in low light whilst I was on an afternoon poodlewalk. A Different versions of this appeared in my abstract photography book, published by Moon Arrow Press in 2016.
