ROADSIDE VERGE
Early Spring, walking the few paces from the bottom of our drive to the top of the track down to the beach, the plants in the ditch that runs along the side of the road that cuts through the property caught my attention (below). On close inspection I was amazed at the variety of plants, colours and textures in a roughly 10 yard stretch, and set about putting a few frames around it.

FLOATING DOCK
I first saw this floating dock deposited on the beach a long way to the South. The tides and storms gradually pushed it closer and closer to us, when one day (or night) it was deposited on our waterfront, with it's Southern tip exactly inside our border, and there it has stayed for the last 2 or 3 years at least. Thanks Neptune!

FULL DISCLOSURE: All photographs on this page were taken with a cell phone.
​The truth is, the camera is just a tool, and the iphone 12 pro is a great tool! It's always with me (I was never was one for carrying a camera everywhere), the large clear screen makes composing easy (unless you are in bright sun) and being so light it's a breeze to explore different angles. The extreme depth of field is perfect for my work; usually a variable that I have to control, with the iphone I don't have to think about it. However, without good resulting images that would all be academic, but thanks to Apple technology and Adobe PhotoShop (and a little experience), I've been able to enlage these to 72"x 48", perfectly sharp, with no luminance noise or pixilation.
Of course there are still situations that call for a 'proper' camera, but the iphone has broadened the scope of my artistic/photographic expression, and many images have been realized that simply wouldn't have happened without it.
