Weather and water shape my rural reality. As a primary producer both impact my livelihood and underpin my sense of wellbeing. I have tried to convey the feeling of awe and wonder felt after the parched creek bed beside my home, was replenished by life giving autumn rain. Providing a sanctuary where the splendour of nature offers the ‘drifter’ a much-needed escape from daily routines.
To create this image, I have used double exposure, a photographic technique that combines two different images into a single image.
