This picture was made whilst I was walking the poodles in the Kuitpo Forest after they had been clipped at the Mt Barker Dog Grooming Salon. We pass the Kuitpo Forest on our way back to Encounter Bay, and it is a good afternoon walking area for the poodles.
The picture was made in 2015. I haven't made any film images in Kuitpo Forest since then--just digital ones.
Made whilst on a recent poodlewalk around the Inman River in Victor Harbor with Suzanne.
The Inman is one of the two rivers that flow through Victor Harbor. The other one is the Hindmarsh River.
This tree is roadside vegetation. It is on Baum Rd, Waitpinga. Baum Rd is a back country road that I often walk along on our poodlewalks.
The photograph was made in the autumn of 2018. I have photographed it before, but I've never been happy with the results. So I had another go recently.
on the southern edge on Lake Alexandrina near the entrance to Lake Albert:
The two lakes are known as the lower lakes located in the Fleurieu Peninsula. The river Murray flows into them before it flows out of the mouth into the southern ocean.
From 2011, when I was living in Adelaide:
It was near where I used to live.
This was made in 2011 on a poodlewalk along Jagger Rd in Waitpinga:
You walk up a rise with farmland on either side. The road side vegetation is sparse.
Made in 2010 whilst I was on a poodlewalk around the estuary of the Hindmarsh River in Victor Harbor, South Australia.
The Melaleuca is still there, but it is different as it lost a lot of its foliage.
From 2010
We were on a drive around Lake Alexandrina and Lake Albert
Currency Creek is one of the places that Suzanne, myself and the standard poodles sometimes go to for a bit of an outing. It's a pleasant walk alongside the creek up to the boundary of the farmland. This picture was made in 2010.
The creek flows into Lake Alexandrina. Currency Creek is more known for its cemetery and wineries these days.
This scene is on a part of the Heysen Trail in Waitpinga. I often walk along this section on a poodlewalk as it is a strip of bush between farmland.
I thought that working on this tree project that was working towards a photobook was a waste of time. Then I came across the Melbourne Photobook collective and William Stewart's On the Making of Trees-- which is an article about the process of making a photobook based on him photographing trees over a number of years.
