Dark Peated Waters

[graeme]

I must admit I'm not a fan of Jackson Pollock at all regardless of intent.

For these particular images as soon as I took the first shot the impressionist works like Turner's  Stormy Sea with a Burning Wreck, The modern Impressionist Kerr Ashmore ( http://www.kerrashmore.com ) and the poem Inversnaid by Gerard Manley Hopkins came to mind and that shaped the next few hours shooting.
If that all sounds a bit arty bollocks then please forgive me; but when I have the time to indulge in getting to know a place that's how my mind works.

If anyone would care to look, I've just finished redeploying my website (still adding new content) and there's 18 shot from this shoot on there on this page http://scapeography.co.uk/dark-peated-waters/

Thanks for looking and I'm pleased we can have these little debates on here

Very interesting images Phil, and thanks for the Kerr Ashmore link.

They are beautiful paintings and photographs.

But they disturb me in quantity: the rut they represent (to me) is as wide and deep as my own.

Maybe for us all, less is more.
