trunk abstract #3

I  recently needed  to fill in  3 or 4 more hours walking with the standard poodles around  the Adelaide parklands. This was  in mid-January 2022. 

 It was a warm day and we walked amongst the trees in and around Veale Gardens.  We moved slowly through the shady areas beneath  the trees  to fill in the time.  As we did so I made a series of photos of the trunks of the trees.

It was  a return to  what I used to do when I lived in the CBD prior to 2015 -- walking the poodles in the parklands and making photos.   Only this time  I wore a mask and kept  my distance from everyone because of  the Covid-19 pandemic. The pandemic is a game changer.

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.
