Still Waters

There is a particular quality to inland water on a still morning. It holds the light differently from the sea, quieter and more contained, more willing to reflect whatever the sky and the land bring to it. These images are made at the edge of lakes and tarns, in the hour when the surface is barely moving and the world above it is still deciding what it wants to be. Sometimes the reflection is clear enough to read. Sometimes the mist arrives first and softens everything into something less certain. Both conditions belong here.

A selection of these images is available as fine art prints.

The Lake Was Still. Now It's on Your Wall.

These mornings don't repeat themselves. The mist lifts, the light shifts, the wind finds the surface, and the water returns to being just a lake. A selection of images from Still Waters is available as archival fine art prints, made to hold what the water was doing in that particular hour before the day arrived. If one of these mornings has stayed with you, it can stay with you properly.
