Field Notes.

The sky caught in the ruts of the reef

Black shag drying on a shipwrecked tree trunk

Prehistoric cry of herons.



Small wooden footbridge over creek

Carving in the clay

Pool to rill to pool to fall


Monument.

Sun lighting the forest like a spoon

Cutting the top off an egg



Mushroom flesh over wet green moss

Thin muscular lancewood with insect fingers

Low sun on a short day



The luxury of the plateau

Highlit textures and saturated colour

Sacred niche in the forest



The indifference of the far off traffic.
