Dark Fruit
Autumn arrived this year 2020, along with the threat of a new wave of Covid 19 infections. Perhaps it was the pervading mood or the thought of my own hospitalisation a year before that promoted me to view the normally glowing autumn fruits through a darker lens. The resulting pictures not only satisfied my poetic gloom, but also provided a useful context for experimenting with reduced exposures. The task was to show enough of the fruit to make it identifiable but reduce the visual information enough to make it seem to be something seen for the first time. No doubt this is only the beginning of a lot of experimentation.
