Trying it out in Darwin

I went down to the forshaw at nightcliff and wandered around for a couple of hours trying to get inspiration to make a work. I ended up on just down from the Nightcliff Pool where i found an interesting space to start creating. I wondered around trying to find colourd rocks, berries, leaves, bark or anything really that i could use. I eventually came across some patches of fine black gravel that collected in little rock pools. So i found an old wine cast to transport the graval onto the white canvas. I then started playing and experimenting with using the black graval contrasting against the pure white sandstone. Something really worked and i got into a creative space. It was now getting on sunset and i then set up my camera on a tripod with a panoramic head. I have just purchase a set of Cokin Neutral Density Gradient filters which i wanted to try and i was really happy with the result. This allows me to get the highlights and shadows correctly exposed. As the sun set the light interacting witht he land art was really fascinating.
