At Gerringong, the coast is almost dissolved.
Dark masses of cloud spread across the frame while areas of pale light break through above the water. The shoreline and horizon are still there, but only as fragments; weather, sea and land seem to run into one another.
Using intentional camera movement during the exposure, the black and white photograph moves away from being a literal description of a storm. It becomes more about shifting tone and uncertainty—the feeling of weather passing across the coast rather than a precise record of it.
