Arcadia


Up the Hawdon Valley, Arthur's Pass, June 2008




"I like water, especially brooks. The sea is too vast. I don't fear it; it is just monotonous. In nature I like smaller things. Microcosm, not macrocosm; limited surfaces. I love the Japanese attitude to nature. They concentrate on a confined space reflecting the infinite. Water is a mysterious element ... because of its structure. And it is very cinegenic; it transmits movement, depth, changes. Nothing is more beautiful than water." Andrei Tarkovsky
