The camera penetrates the tangle of branches before the leaves get their chance. The willow and the dogwood; common in the parks blends the subdued colours of the season’s boundary. The buds and new shoots are just appearing in amongst the random weavings of the branches and with a wide aperture we can blur the palette.
The winter river is in full flood and the weirs are controlling the torrents as the turbulent waters scour out the sediments. The river is wild and dangerous with fast currents and a surface that mixes the whites of the foam with the greens and greys of the cold winter Thames.
Sweeping from sky to land, the hill of meadow flowers meets the blue of sky. Up the walk with rest for breath and closer look, down the view meets the green of trees.
The sea shore pebbles and the lapping water. Capturing colours and textures for the curved form. Added structural elements; repositories for the image details and colours that are alluring in the moment.
Pads float over surface drawn with lines of reeds. The curving sweep of water grasses light against the drifting deeps. Shapes of colour align with clips of views. Colours chosen to capture the structure.
Short grasses overlaid with shapes of green. Look at these veins in the leaf cropped into the hexagon. The shapes anchor to the centre with balanced structure and shades of green.
