Rockpooling
There is a specific, quiet focus found in rockpooling, a slowing down of time as the tide retreats to reveal the treasures of the Atlantic shelf. This monochrome study captures that exact moment of discovery, where the geometry of ancient stone meets the crystalline ripple of the retreating sea.
The composition is a tactile exploration of the British coast. Your eye is drawn to the intricate textures of the wet strata and scattered shells, each detail sharpened by the high-contrast light of a coastal morning. It isn't just a photograph of rocks; it’s a record of the Atlantic’s fingerprint, left behind in the still, shallow basins of the shore.
This piece brings a grounded, elemental energy into your home. Its minimalist black-and-white palette allows it to sit naturally in any space, acting as a window to those calm, contemplative hours spent by the water's edge. It is a tribute to the "small things" - the rhythmic patterns of the tide and the quiet resilience of the coast, reminding us of the clarity found in looking just a little bit closer.
