This is another picture in my little experiment in a black and white poetics:
The picture is of a small salt pan near Petrel Cove on the southern Fleurieu Peninsula. It was made in the summer of 2023. The two earlier pictures in the experiment are here and here
I hadn't been thinking in terms of a b+w poetic series when I was making these pictures. I was more concerned to train myself to re-see in black and white photography after several years of working in digital colour. I was learning to get my eye in.
I had been having little success with digital black and white and I wanted to avoid the technical stuff that comes with a digital camera. So it was back to basics to explore and developing a b+w poetics using one type of film (Kodak T Max 400) and one camera (Leica M4).
