trunk abstraction

This is an abstraction of the  trunk of a eucalyptus in the Adelaide Parklands: 

It was made whilst on a recent poodlewalk . It was raining at the time we were walking.  

bark abstraction #4

The trunk of a  pink gum in the local bushland in Waitpinga:

This was  made  on my  last visit to this bushland in the early morning.  The grass seeds were everywhere and it was well nigh impossible  to walk with the poodles in the bushland. Kayla  ended up being  covered with grass seeds in the legs, ears and body.  It took me ages to pick them off her body. 

granite abstraction #14

This abstraction was made on an early morning poodlewalk  with Kayla during the late summer of 2019

I have never been able to find the site since. I do know the rough area in which this granite is located--its just west of Petrel Cove-- but I cannot find the detailed site amongst the different granite formations in the area.   

granite abstraction #10

 This picture was made on an early morning  poodlewalk with Kayla: 

It is an abstraction of granite rocks near Petrel Cove on the southern Fleurieu Peninsula. 

dark granite

This picture was made whilst I was on a recent  poodlewalk with Maleko along the coast rocks near Kings Beach Rd. It was towards the end of the walk and I was in a hurry. 

 It was in the late afternoon. The weather was changing. A sou-westerly wind had up, the clouds became darker, the light lessened,  and I could sense rain. So we quickly made our way back to the Subaru Forester, that was parked at the bottom of Kings Beach Rd.  

white abstract

Made on an early morning  poodlewalk with Kayla:

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

sea abstract #2

This picture is from another go in this experimental series:

It is from a different location along the coast than the location for the earlier sea abstract.  It is  much safer from the  force of the frequent rogue waves.
