‘The Boathouse’ This photograph of Woodchester Boathouse presents a still, reflective scene, where the structure sits quietly against the water, mirrored almost perfectly beneath it. The high contrast (which is something I love creating) emphasises the deep blacks and soft highlights, simplifying the image into bold shapes and reflections, while the surrounding trees dissolve into a textured, almost dreamlike backdrop. The use of digital photography, carefully edited to echo the aesthetic of analogue film, bridges past and present, creating an image that feels both immediate and timeless. The calm surface of the water becomes central to the composition, acting as both a literal and symbolic mirror. It suggests introspection and stillness, inviting the viewer to pause and reflect. The boathouse itself feels solitary yet grounded - a fixed point within a fluid environment. The overall atmosphere is one of tranquillity and solitude. Unlike the sense of distance or disconnection present in the other works, this piece feels resolved, almost meditative. The absence of movement, combined with the clarity of the reflection, creates a moment suspended in time - not fragmented or misaligned, but whole and undisturbed. Printed on luster fine art paper, the image gains a soft depth that enhances its tonal range, allowing the contrast to remain rich without losing detail. Framed consistently with the rest of the collection, the piece contributes to a visual language while offering a quieter, more introspective tone - a moment of stillness within a series shaped by time, memory, and perception.

This is the first print of a limited edition collection, signed & dated. This piece has been displayed with an art gallery alongside the rest of this collection.
