Resting by the Water’s Edge XXXVIII

The fine art series Resting by the Water’s Edge captures the serene beauty of a lake at the end of summer, where rowing boats rest peacefully on the shore. The photos' faded colors and soft, dreamlike quality create a sense of timelessness, where reality feels softened, and the viewer is invited into a world of quiet contemplation. The distant island, barely visible through the mist, adds a touch of mystery, drawing the viewer’s imagination toward the horizon.

The moody, calming atmosphere of the collection encourages viewers to stop, reflect, and connect with nature’s gentle rhythms. The silhouettes of branches, framing the stillness of the boats, create a visual metaphor for introspection and peace. As philosopher Jean-Jacques Rousseau once wrote, “Nature never deceives us; it is we who deceive ourselves.” Resting by the Water’s Edge invites us to reconnect with nature’s truth and to find peace and clarity in the water.
