At the end of Lockdown, a camera became the conduit.

A way of seeing, creating, questioning and above all appreciating what was there and also what was not there. How the imagination could play tricks with the light, alter the perception and create a collection of thoughts, moods and being.

Currently this site represents one year of images split into the four seasons. It just seemed to be a natural way of showcasing the cycles within cycles.

Distractions, that keep you busy to prevent you stopping or slowing down. realising you have all you need, you were born with it.

Paulo Coelho - Eleven Minutes
