    Photography

    A composited photo of a tiny huddled figure sitting cross-legged with arms wrapped over their head, dwarfed between two enormous over-ear headphone cups, against a moody blue-toned rumpled fabric backdrop

    Cancel the noise in my head?

    A figure in white denim shorts standing against a warm amber backdrop, pulling a t-shirt up over their head and face, bare midriff lit from the side while the rest falls into deep shadow

    Scarred

    Close-up of a sweating glass of water on a dark surface, lit by deep blue bar light, with bokeh highlights blurred behind it

    Desire

    Clusters of bright red berries on bare tangled branches, each cluster capped with fresh snow, against a pale snowy background

    Fresh

    A blue tiger butterfly with brown wings streaked in pale blue and white spots, perched on the edge of a red and blue knitted fabric against a soft green background

    Life

    A tiny pair of silver camera-shaped stud earrings set with clear stones, lying on a dark surface with a real camera body blurred behind them

    Passion

    A woman in black lying spread-eagled against a pale wall, head tipped back, palms and bare feet pressed flat to the surface Story

    Pretense

    I am home But my mind is not I am told to rest Like rest is a room I can enter While thoughts gnaw at my brain Like bright …Read the story →
    Close-up in warm low light of a tan leather lace-up boot with a tweed collar and open zip, resting against a soft brown leather bag, the background falling away into darkness

    Restless

    Sunrise seen from above the clouds, with a banked sea of white cloud in the foreground, a dark ridgeline and distant snow peaks catching gold light, and the sun breaking through orange cloud into deep blue sky

    Sunshine as it must be

    Two horse-drawn carriages waiting at the kerb on a grey winter day in New York, one white and purple and one red, with bare trees, traffic and lit city buildings behind them

    Where do you go next?

    You Were Never Here

    The ambulance doors open and I blearily watch as I am moved out on a stretcher. The hospital. The dreaded hospital. All my …Read the story →

    Respite

    Respite. That was what I was promised. I was desperate enough to believe and optimistic enough to try. What I did not expect was …Read the story →

    The Magic of the Mountains
