SEA AND STONE
Dean Wilson
Endless drifting sand
carving the stone and shore,
ever-changing meandering line
as an invisible border
between sea and stone.
The sand does not stay,
does not stop
for a portrait
to be painted
like the words in
a book of poetry.
The sea does not hold back
as it cuts and grinds
stone into sand,
casting about to destroy
or create art.
I stand between the
sea and stone.
Watching timeless lines
shift beneath my feet.
Dean Wilson
Born in Oregon, our family moved around a lot. I used my first camera, a 126-roll film from the 1960s, very infrequently. Progressing through the Instamatic days of the 1970s, I bought my first SLT in 1976. This eventually led to a DSLR in 2015 and mirrorless from 2019. Photography is a passion for me that allows me to capture a feeling, mood, or a moment in time that tells a story. I capture landscapes with a creative eye of a place that may have existed for thousands of years or in the blink of an eye, which may suddenly disappear tomorrow.
