Between Stone and Time
This photograph explores the tension between permanence and transience. The jagged rock formations rise with quiet authority, shaped by geological time, while the surrounding sea—softened through long exposure—becomes a shifting, almost ethereal counterpoint. Rendered in black and white, the image strips the scene to its essential forms, emphasizing texture, contrast, and tonal depth over distraction or narrative.
The composition invites contemplation rather than spectacle. The angled mass of stone suggests resistance and endurance, yet its isolation hints at vulnerability under relentless natural forces. Reflections in the wet sand echo the subject, blurring the boundary between solid and fluid, presence and absence.
Ultimately, the work considers landscape as both monument and process: a momentary stillness within an ongoing cycle of erosion, motion, and time.
