white abstract

Made on an early morning  poodlewalk with Kayla:

It was low tide so access to these distorted granite rock forms  was possible.

A scoping study made on a poodlewalk with Maleko:

The next step is film camera--Linhof Technika 70--- a tripod and Kodak Portra film.

This abstraction was made on a recent poodlewalk along the coast of the southern Fleurieu Peninsula, just  west of Dep's Beach 

I was scoping for a film shoot. This one is accessible at low tide  and I am able to  use a tripod.

This was made on a poodlewalk  yesterday with Heather Petty, and Kayla and Maleko:

Heather, who is a Nikon DSLR photographer,  had a  new Sony premium compact camera with her,  which she was trying out before  she started to use it for her underwater  photography.  It was a Sony Cyber-shot DSC RX100V --with a fixed lens I think. It is compact in the sense that Heather could put the camera in her  pocket.  

The Sony DSC RX100V's   point and shoot characteristic makes it ideal for underwater photography.

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.
