The day before the beginning

Tomorrow I will be starting this new project I call Shards. For the next few months I will be traveling in Newfoundland, exploring land and seascapes, and searching for pottery shards to photograph. In my experience they are abundant - in the past 500 years almost every cove on the island has been inhabited in one form or another, these people have left their trash behind, and the ceramic materials they left are still evident after all this time. But today is my last day of preparation. I am mostly ready, but still have a few things to do. Soon you can look forward to lots of images.
