Resting by the Water’s Edge VI

The fine art series Resting by the Water’s Edge invites viewers into a serene world where the stillness of a lake’s shore provides space for reflection and calm. The faded colors and dreamy, painting-like quality of the photographs evoke a sense of nostalgia for late summer, where the air is thick with tranquility, and the days stretch into timelessness. The rowing boats rest by the water, quietly waiting for their next journey, while the distant island beckons with its mysterious allure.

The combination of black-and-white and color photos creates a dynamic visual experience where light, shadow, and tone work together to capture the quiet beauty of nature. The silhouettes of branches gently frame the scene, adding depth and texture to the images. Resting by the Water’s Edge reminds viewers to pause, take in their surroundings, and reconnect with the stillness of the moment—a sentiment captured by the words of philosopher Lao Tzu: “Nature does not hurry, yet everything is accomplished.”
