Sandstone
Before I leave to the UK for one week, a series I took a few weeks ago when I was in Bregenz, Vorarlberg. There’s an amazing place right in the middle of the Bregenzer Ach, a river that flows into the Lake of Constance. It’s a monolith that consists of sandstone, left there since the last ice age. The water of the river has over millenia shaped this rock to look a bit like flowing water itself – soft curves, ripples and big waves. This is how the place looks like:
Years ago I have tried and failed to capture this place, now I gave it another try. I quite liked the outcome, exept for the fact that I messed up one of the rolls while developing, which bugs me, as I really liked one or two of the pictures. But for the rest – here you go, I hope you enjoy!
And here is one of the messed up negatives…
It’s a wonderful place, so if you ever happen to be in the area, go and have a look!
Films: Trix 400 & Agfa APX 100 both in Rodinal 1+50.
Almost like being on another planet! Its amazing to see how water and time can create such smooth and eloquent designs.
