There's something about the sound of waves, caressing a sandy shore, that is so soothing.
As always, many thanks for viewing, commenting and faving.
a fleeting moment suspended between concrete and light. the girl’s stride breaks the silence of the wall — like punctuation in a sentence of stone. the diagonal shadow, a staircase to nowhere, carves space with surgical precision. time doesn’t move here; it breathes.
The first frosty morning of autumn, with car windows iced over and the lawn sparkling with frost. Beautiful.
A quiet lakeside scene where autumn’s golden hues embrace the landscape. The summer boat now rests upside down, waiting for another season to begin. The calm water mirrors the stillness of nature preparing for winter.
Fun fact:
Deciduous trees like oak and birch change color because chlorophyll breaks down as temperatures drop, revealing yellow, orange, and red pigments that were always hidden within the leaves.
captured from our hotel room as dawn breaks over the rooftops of paris, this image tells a story of quiet charm and age-old character. the soft morning light touches worn wood frames and the weathered metal of an old parisian window, casting a shadow of a streetlamp like a silent sentinel across the roof. each detail, from the faded texture to the gentle edges, seems to hold a secret, an echo of artists who once wandered these streets, inspired by the same view. this is a still tribute to the history and poetry lingering in the rooftops of montmartre.
in this urban street scene, a man leans against a graffiti-marked wall, absorbed in his phone, while the warm glow from a nearby shop lights up his calm expression. the quiet tension between stillness and movement—reflected in the blurred figure inside the shop—adds depth to the moment. the scene feels quintessentially modern: a snapshot of waiting, technology, and the pulse of city life, all framed by the textures of street culture.
A sharp mind playing with a subtle hint of mischief — that soft game between focus and a hidden smile.
Dedicated to the goddess Lelya.

After the concert — that quiet moment when everything cools down.
I used a diffused flash from the left and created the atmosphere with a fog machine.
One logo was removed to keep the focus on mood and texture rather than brand identity.
I wanted it to feel more like a scene than product photography.
Serene night where the full moon lit the river under dramatic clouds.
Captured in Khaliyajhuri, Netrokona, Mymensingh, Bangladesh, just as the sky turned cinematic blue.
What do you love more — the textured sky or the glowing water reflection?
A gentle veil of snow covers the forested isles of the Thousand Islands in Ontario, Canada, marking the quiet retreat of winter. Captured from above by Duncan Rawlinson, this aerial photograph reveals a serene mosaic of land and water—where icy channels and snow-dusted trees blend into the season’s final breath. The lone red boathouse offers a vivid point of contrast amid the fading cold.
A vivid panorama of Algonquin Provincial Park captures a forest ablaze with autumn color, perfectly mirrored in the still waters of a quiet lake. Created by Duncan Rawlinson, this serene landscape features a vibrant tapestry of reds, oranges, yellows, and greens, set against an overcast sky, inviting a sense of calm and timeless natural beauty.
A tiny wooden birdhouse sits quietly in the golden embrace of an autumn forest. Shot with a focus on texture and warmth, this frame is perfect as a mobile wallpaper — especially for those who seek peace through nature’s stillness.
Young girl tourist in the historic center of the city. A blond woman with long hair in a coat and a yellow scarf on an autumn street.

I tried to get a soft shot from this part of the coast, but it was not possible at first, because of the hard light and it was quite crowded, too.
After hours the szene got the right mood, and the poeple went home, a small overexposure, and i had the shot i would like to have. It´s one if my fav´s, hope you like it, too.
Snow-covered branches stretch in branching patterns against a pure white sky, forming a minimalist composition that mirrors the fractal complexity of both nature and thought. Captured by Duncan Rawlinson in the 1000 Islands region of Ontario, Canada, this black and white winter scene offers a quiet reflection on structure, repetition, and the calm found in stark simplicity.
A female Northern Cardinal perches gracefully, her soft brown and warm red tones standing out against the smooth green background.
I photographed her in my Arkansas yard, where cardinals are a constant presence. The females may not be as flashy as the males, but their subtle coloring is just as beautiful.
With her orange bill, upright crest, and calm posture, she shows the classic traits of her species. Northern Cardinals are year-round residents here and often bring a calm, steady presence to backyard scenes.
“Master I cannot meditate, my mind is too busy.”
“Of course child, your breath is hurried and shallow. As you slow your breath to the depths of your belly, consciousness will become focused and introspective.
Meditation will become inevitable.”

This Carolina Chickadee perched briefly on a thin branch, giving me just enough time to capture its curious look.
I photographed it in my yard, where these little birds often flit between shrubs and feeders. The soft green background helped isolate the chickadee nicely in the frame.
Carolina Chickadees are small, active songbirds known for their black caps and cheerful calls. Despite their size, they’re bold and inquisitive, often sticking around to investigate nearby movement.
