Resting by the Water’s Edge XIX

In Resting by the Water’s Edge, the calm shores of a late summer lake become a space for contemplation and peace. The rowing boats rest quietly on the shore, their faded colors blending harmoniously with the dreamlike atmosphere of the collection. The fine art, painting-like quality of the photos evokes a timeless sense of stillness, where reality feels softened, and the viewer is invited to linger in the quiet beauty of the scene.

The distant island, framed by the delicate silhouettes of branches, adds an element of mystery, drawing the viewer’s eye toward the horizon. The moody, contemplative tone of the collection encourages reflection, offering a moment of escape from the rush of everyday life. In both color and black-and-white, these photos create a serene, introspective mood, echoing the words of poet Robert Frost: “The woods are lovely, dark and deep, but I have promises to keep and miles to go before I sleep.” Resting by the Water’s Edge invites viewers to pause on their journey and rest awhile by the peaceful water.
