The next few posts will be pics from a beautiful weekend away I enjoyed earlier in May. There were around ten of us and we were extremely lucky to have the opportunity to stay at Ness, the coastal home of Manning Clark, which is a few hundred acres on the far south coast. The house itself is gorgeous - simple and cosy and right on the headland.
Among us were poets and writers, painters and sculptors and of course, photographers. I had planned to use the time to start work on a new series to be exhibited in September, but the company was too warm to take much quiet time, the place too beautiful not to snap endlessly and aimlessly, and the food and wine too intoxicating to be terribly focused. Next time it'll be heads down, bums up - masterpieces galore. Maybe...
I'll start with the polaroids. Please excuse the dust.

I am captivated by these, Greer.
(and your previous post too ) Looking forward to
seeing more of your time spent at Ness. x
Amazing. Looking at these makes me feel content and calm. Beautiful.
It was kinda cool huh? Love those mirror shots ... at this scale they could be entangled in lightning. My favourite is 6th from the bottom: the sticks in the sand by the water ... captures a certain something about the place ... but then they all do :-)
Next time masterpieces! (if I don't get distracted again by all the stuff you mention...)
stunning series!
Judith, Manuela, Geoff, Anne - thanks so much. I've just realised that I included two scans of the same picture and forgot the other in this little set. Silly..
(in the mirror set I mean)
