Resting by the Water’s Edge XXXIX

In Resting by the Water’s Edge, the gentle stillness of a lake at the end of summer is brought to life through fine art photography. Rowing boats, resting silently on the shore, seem to float in a dreamy, painterly world where time stands still. The faded colors of late summer blend with soft, moody lighting to create a tranquil scene that encourages deep reflection. The distant island, framed by the delicate silhouettes of branches, beckons the viewer to linger, to wonder.

This collection of color and black-and-white photos invites viewers to pause and contemplate nature's simple beauty. The calm waters and serene atmosphere of the images offer a peaceful retreat, a moment of quiet to find clarity. As Ralph Waldo Emerson wrote, “Adopt the pace of nature: her secret is patience.” Resting by the Water’s Edge teaches us to slow down, to take in the quiet presence of boats, water, and light, and to find peace in nature’s rhythm.
