Stranded on the rocks

Local beach...












Q2M + Green Filter.

These are like seeing echos of time flowing past Rob, I can drink the atmosphere and salt spray all night. Great trio.

 

[Dave Farnes]

A fine set, fascinating textures.

 

[Rob MacKillop]

Thank you, gentlemen. Appreciated. It's all about textures and form. I'll return to the scene as the light was a bit harsh, and as it is just five minutes away I should have plenty of opportunities to choose a good time. But these are not bad, I just think better light might yield a better result. We shall see.

I like how if you are just presented with one of the images, you might not guess what it is or even the scale - could be huge landscapes, maybe.

There's no landscape more alien to me than the shore, which is why I find both attractive and repellant. Nothing repellant, I think, in this trio.

"Echoes of time flowing past" - very poetic, Wes. I'll use that for the exhibition

 

[Dave Farnes]

Could also be the hide of a scruffy looking animal.

 

[Rob MacKillop]

Yes, that crossed my mind too, Dave. I should have done a "Name this animal" game...

Highland cow after a rough night in Glasgow?

 

[Pete Askew]

Another gorgeous set, Rob. And I especially like the composition of the third. Looking forward to more (maybe I will come across them yet! ).

 

[Rob MacKillop]

Thanks, Pete. No more so far…but they’re still there…
