Seen in Termoli, on the Adriatic coast, in the region of Molise, Southern Italy

A vivid collision of regulation and nature—this playful scene captures a "No Parking" sign perfectly juxtaposed with a cheerful potted plant in the heart of Andalusia. A quirky snapshot of Spanish street charm where rules meet creativity.

Simply Life #21.

The things that makes us smile: Flowers.... sunflowers...golden yellow, against a crisp blue sky! It makes me feel happy, energetic and alive! I have a sinus infection today and feel rotten. This shot is one I needed to see today :) Hope it cheers you up too. ;)

A mesmerizing view of the spiral staircase at Isola Bella, Italy. The stone steps and rustic walls create a captivating blend of history and architecture, leading the eye upwards towards the light. This unique perspective showcases the intricate design and craftsmanship of this historic site.

Once a trusted partner in countless builds, now rusted into retirement—this vintage hand saw clings to a sunbaked wall in Rancho Bernardo, California. Its blade dulled by years and its grip faded by hands long gone, it stands not as a tool, but as a relic. A story without words, etched in iron and grain.

This rustic wall is on the climb out of Mevagissey .Cornwall,England at the top take the coastal path up the coast to Pentewan

In the shadow of a timeworn wall, a cow stands motionless before a closed door, suspended between the traces of the past and the present moment. The faded pigments, wall inscriptions, and textured surfaces evoke a silent narrative — one of sacred routine, humility, and permanence. The image reflects on the coexistence of spirituality, urban space, and animal presence, within a setting where every detail carries memory.

Old worn red brick wall with green moss beginning to grow.

In Malacca recently I was. And to teach my colleague Asnan a trick or two in mastering the levitation technique i managed...

 

This shot is taken right at the A Famosa fortress.

 

Nikon SB600 was propped on left side of me, diffused with white umbrella.

Men wathing TV in a small bar in pottery village of Twante near Yangon in Myanmar.

while wallking around in search of interestingness, came across this TV facing the wall in a backlane in Raub town. it gives me the impression that the owner punished it for its 'wrong' doings.

A confident woman with flowing hair sits gracefully on a chair against a textured wall, captured in soft monochrome. The cozy atmosphere enhances her strong presence.

This Western Australia series are photographs taken on a trip to WA in the early 1990's. The trip focused mostly from Fremantle all the way down to Augusta, slowly making our way down whilst absorbing the history and the stunning scenery.

 

Originally taken with my Nikon SLR, the photo's have all been scanned. A great deal of care and attention to detail has been taken to get the highest quality outcome possible...some are a little grainy, which isn't necessarily a bad thing but I feel for the most part they work OK

 

The reason they are linked to my pinch river profile is because they will inevitably feed into my work at some stage in some way or another, but for now can just be enjoyed as images of Western Australia that captured my attention and my heart.

Sunlight glints off the vibrant blue onion domes of a striking stone chapel, illuminating the secluded alpine atmosphere of Villa Berna, Argentina. Rising dramatically against a clear sky, the intricately laid cobblestone facade and steeply pitched roof of this Eastern Orthodox-inspired structure create a fascinating architectural juxtaposition within the South American landscape. A vibrant mosaic icon of a saint sits prominently above the arched wooden doorway, hinting at the rich immigrant history and diverse cultural tapestry woven into the Sierras de Córdoba. Standing warmly in the foreground against a rustic stone wall, Audrey Bergner and Samuel Jeffery are captured alongside family members in a relaxed, joyful moment of travel documentation. The harsh midday light casts deep, defining shadows across the textured stonework and surrounding foliage, emphasizing the rugged beauty of the setting. Photographed from a slightly lower vantage point, the composition effectively magnifies the stature of the diminutive chapel while keeping the group anchored in the inviting foreground. Lush green pines and native vegetation frame the scene, their dark silhouettes providing a natural vignette that draws the viewer's eye toward the brightly lit architectural centerpiece. The intricate wrought-iron crosses atop each dome stand starkly against the azure heavens, a testament to the meticulous craftsmanship hidden away in this tranquil Argentine hamlet. Casual summer attire and genuine smiles convey a sense of genuine discovery and intimate connection with the region's hidden historical gems. This vibrant tableau masterfully blends travel portraiture with architectural documentation, encapsulating the unexpected alpine charm of Villa Berna. This image is a collaborative production by Samuel Jeffery and Audrey Bergner for Project 23.

La luz del sol destella en las vibrantes cúpulas de cebolla azules de una llamativa capilla de piedra, iluminando la apartada atmósfera alpina de Villa Berna, Argentina. Elevándose dramáticamente contra un cielo despejado, la fachada de adoquines intrincadamente colocados y el techo de fuerte pendiente de esta estructura de inspiración ortodoxa oriental crean una fascinante yuxtaposición arquitectónica dentro del paisaje sudamericano. Un vibrante icono en mosaico de un santo se asienta de manera prominente sobre la puerta de madera arqueada, insinuando la rica historia de los inmigrantes y el diverso tapiz cultural tejido en las Sierras de Córdoba. De pie cálidamente en primer plano contra un muro de piedra rústico, Audrey Bergner y Samuel Jeffery son capturados junto a miembros de su familia en un momento relajado y alegre de documentación de viajes. La dura luz del mediodía proyecta sombras profundas y definitorias a través de la mampostería texturizada y el follaje circundante, enfatizando la belleza agreste del entorno. Fotografiada desde un punto de vista ligeramente inferior, la composición magnifica eficazmente la estatura de la diminuta capilla mientras mantiene al grupo anclado en el acogedor primer plano. Los exuberantes pinos verdes y la vegetación nativa enmarcan la escena, y sus oscuras siluetas proporcionan una viñeta natural que atrae la mirada del espectador hacia la pieza central arquitectónica brillantemente iluminada. Las intrincadas cruces de hierro forjado en la cima de cada cúpula se destacan crudamente contra el cielo azul, un testimonio de la meticulosa artesanía escondida en esta tranquila aldea argentina. La vestimenta informal de verano y las sonrisas genuinas transmiten una sensación de auténtico descubrimiento y conexión íntima con las joyas históricas ocultas de la región. Este cuadro vibrante combina magistralmente el retrato de viajes con la documentación arquitectónica, encapsulando el inesperado encanto alpino de Villa Berna. Esta imagen es una producción colaborativa de Samuel Jeffery y Audrey Bergner para el Proyecto 23.

Green fern plant growing out of a blue painted weathered brick wall. - A vibrant green fern breaks through a crack in a rustic, weathered brick wall painted in bright blue and peeling white tones, showcasing urban nature and resilience in Brazil.

A rustic ambience par excellence is what can be best described here with a straight line contemporary fabric sofa and a wooden top wrought iron coffee table on a cosy shaggy rug and a rustic wall paper wt the back drop along with a minimal console in duco and some very interesting modern home decor pieces and a very contemporary floor lamp to complete the setup

Colonia del Sacramento, Uruguay: Samuel Jeffery and Audrey Bergner explore the timeless atmosphere of this UNESCO World Heritage site, captured in a bright, candid selfie. The image frames the pair against the backdrop of narrow, uneven cobblestone lanes and crumbling, textured walls that reveal the enduring history of early Portuguese settlement. Soft, diffused daylight filters through the trees, illuminating the vibrant contrast between the aged, rustic facades and the modern, active lifestyle of the travelers. By positioning themselves close to the lens, the subjects create an intimate connection with the viewer while highlighting the weathered plaster and unique architectural details of the Barrio Histórico. Every element, from the colonial building textures to the narrow street composition, emphasizes the preservation of 17th-century aesthetics in modern South America. This photograph serves as a testament to the preservation of cultural heritage and the joy of uncovering stories etched into the very stones of historic neighborhoods. The scene captures the essence of slow travel, where the focus shifts from the destination's fame to the authentic textures and quiet corners of a city frozen in time. The bright, high-key lighting enhances the warmth of the day, reflecting the welcoming spirit of the local community found throughout this historic riverside town. This image is a collaborative production by Samuel Jeffery and Audrey Bergner for Samuel and Audrey Media Network.

Colonia del Sacramento, Uruguay: Samuel Jeffery y Audrey Bergner exploran la atmósfera atemporal de este sitio declarado Patrimonio de la Humanidad por la UNESCO, capturados en una selfie brillante y espontánea. La imagen enmarca a la pareja con el telón de fondo de estrechas calles de adoquines desiguales y muros desmoronados y texturizados que revelan la historia perdurable del asentamiento portugués temprano. La luz del día, suave y difusa, se filtra a través de los árboles, iluminando el contraste vibrante entre las fachadas envejecidas y rústicas y el estilo de vida activo y moderno de los viajeros. Al posicionarse cerca del lente, los sujetos crean una conexión íntima con el espectador mientras resaltan el yeso desgastado y los detalles arquitectónicos únicos del Barrio Histórico. Cada elemento, desde las texturas de los edificios coloniales hasta la composición de la calle estrecha, enfatiza la preservación de la estética del siglo XVII en la Sudamérica moderna. Esta fotografía sirve como testimonio de la preservación del patrimonio cultural y la alegría de descubrir historias grabadas en las mismas piedras de los barrios históricos. La escena captura la esencia del viaje lento, donde el enfoque cambia de la fama del destino a las texturas auténticas y rincones tranquilos de una ciudad congelada en el tiempo. La iluminación brillante realza la calidez del día, reflejando el espíritu acogedor de la comunidad local que se encuentra en todo este histórico pueblo ribereño. Este image es una producción colaborativa de Samuel Jeffery y Audrey Bergner para Samuel and Audrey Media Network.

In Khargone village, 2 children,a small girl and a younger boy ,are looking from behind a mud wall.

A woman stands gracefully in a stylish blue coat and black tights, exuding confidence. The rustic brick wall and wooden table create a warm indoor atmosphere.

Natural sunlight creating a strong shadow across an old stone block wall. Textured historic masonry background with contrast between light and shade, detailed architectural stone surface.

Warm, late-afternoon sunlight grazes the textured surface of a rustic stone wall in the Argentine Northwest, illuminating the chaotic layers of vibrant red and blue graffiti splashed across its ancient face. The rough, uneven cobblestones, cemented together by arid earth, serve as an impromptu canvas for passing travelers and locals alike. A shallow depth of field softly blurs the edges of the frame, drawing the eye immediately to the crisp, central etchings where swirling blue cursive letters spell out words of affection and presence. The high contrast between the rusty, sun-baked ochre of the natural rock and the synthetic, vivid hues of the spray paint creates a striking visual dichotomy. This layering of modern, expressive vandalism over traditional Andean stonework speaks to a complex intersection of heritage and contemporary youth culture in regions like Iruya. Faintly scratched names and dates, such as "Maria Sanchez 2013," are etched directly into the mortar, revealing a long-standing tradition of leaving a personal mark on this rugged landscape. The tactile quality of the image invites the viewer to almost feel the grit of the sandstone and the smooth, chemical slickness of the paint. Often found along isolated mountain passes or near prominent viewpoints, these marked walls act as unofficial guestbooks for wanderers navigating the winding, dusty roads of Norte Argentino. The golden hour light enhances the three-dimensionality of the stones, casting deep, dramatic shadows in the crevices that further emphasize the organic irregularity of the wall. Ultimately, the photograph captures a raw, unpolished slice of life in the Quebrada, where human expression boldly interrupts the timeless geological silence. This image is a collaborative production by Samuel Jeffery and Audrey Bergner for Project 23.

La cálida luz del sol de última hora de la tarde roza la superficie texturizada de un muro de piedra rústica en el noroeste argentino, iluminando las caóticas capas de vibrantes grafitis rojos y azules salpicados en su antigua cara. Los adoquines ásperos y desiguales, cimentados por tierra árida, sirven como un lienzo improvisado para los viajeros y lugareños por igual. Una profundidad de campo reducida desenfoca suavemente los bordes del encuadre, atrayendo la mirada inmediatamente hacia los grabados centrales y nítidos donde las letras cursivas azules arremolinadas deletrean palabras de afecto y presencia. El alto contraste entre el ocre oxidado y horneado por el sol de la roca natural y los tonos sintéticos y vivos de la pintura en aerosol crea una sorprendente dicotomía visual. Esta superposición de vandalismo moderno y expresivo sobre la mampostería tradicional andina habla de una compleja intersección entre el patrimonio y la cultura juvenil contemporánea en regiones como Iruya. Los nombres y fechas apenas rayados, como "Maria Sanchez 2013", están grabados directamente en el mortero, revelando una larga tradición de dejar una marca personal en este paisaje accidentado. La calidad táctil de la imagen invita al espectador a casi sentir la aspereza de la arenisca y la suavidad química de la pintura. A menudo encontrados a lo largo de pasos de montaña aislados o cerca de miradores prominentes, estos muros marcados actúan como libros de visitas no oficiales para los caminantes que navegan por las carreteras sinuosas y polvorientas del Norte Argentino. La luz de la hora dorada realza la tridimensionalidad de las piedras, proyectando sombras profundas y dramáticas en las grietas que enfatizan aún más la irregularidad orgánica del muro. En última instancia, la fotografía captura una porción de vida cruda y sin pulir en la Quebrada, donde la expresión humana interrumpe audazmente el silencioso tiempo geológico. Esta imagen es una producción colaborativa de Samuel Jeffery y Audrey Bergner para Project 23.

Jagged, rust-colored badlands rise dramatically against a brooding, overcast sky in the heart of the Argentine Northwest. The heavily eroded mountainsides of this regional landscape display striking striations of terracotta, ochre, and deep crimson, revealing centuries of geological history. In stark contrast to the arid, monumental peaks, a lush band of verdant vegetation thrives in the valley below, nourished by unseen mountain runoff. Exceptionally tall, slender poplar trees pierce the composition vertically, their dark trunks and sparse foliage drawing the eye upward from the valley floor toward the imposing rock faces. The muted, diffused lighting from the heavy cloud cover saturates the earth tones, eliminating harsh shadows and allowing the intricate textures of the eroded rock to dominate the scene. A deep depth of field is employed here, keeping everything from the rustic, hand-stacked stone wall in the immediate foreground to the distant, atmospheric peaks sharply in focus. This low stone wall, a traditional pirca, speaks to the enduring agricultural practices of the local Andean communities who have cultivated these challenging terrains for millennia. The atmosphere is heavy and contemplative, capturing the raw, untamed essence of the high-altitude desert environments characteristic of Jujuy and Salta provinces. The juxtaposition of the rich, warm reds of the mountains with the vibrant, cool greens of the valley floor creates a powerful visual tension. It is a landscape that feels both timeless and dynamic, shaped by the relentless forces of wind and water. This image is a collaborative production by Samuel Jeffery and Audrey Bergner for Project 23.

Escarpadas tierras baldías de color óxido se elevan dramáticamente contra un cielo plomizo y nublado en el corazón del Noroeste Argentino. Las laderas fuertemente erosionadas de este paisaje regional muestran sorprendentes estrías de terracota, ocre y carmesí profundo, revelando siglos de historia geológica. En marcado contraste con los picos áridos y monumentales, una exuberante franja de vegetación verde prospera en el valle inferior, nutrida por la escorrentía invisible de las montañas. Álamos excepcionalmente altos y esbeltos perforan la composición verticalmente, sus troncos oscuros y follaje ralo atrayendo la mirada hacia arriba desde el fondo del valle hacia las imponentes paredes de roca. La iluminación tenue y difusa de la densa capa de nubes satura los tonos terrosos, eliminando las sombras duras y permitiendo que las intrincadas texturas de la roca erosionada dominen la escena. Aquí se emplea una gran profundidad de campo, manteniendo todo perfectamente enfocado, desde el rústico muro de piedra apilada a mano en el primer plano inmediato hasta los distantes y atmosféricos picos. Este murete de piedra, una tradicional pirca, habla de las perdurables prácticas agrícolas de las comunidades andinas locales que han cultivado estos desafiantes terrenos durante milenios. La atmósfera es pesada y contemplativa, capturando la esencia cruda e indómita de los entornos desérticos de gran altitud característicos de las provincias de Jujuy y Salta. La yuxtaposición de los ricos y cálidos rojos de las montañas con los vibrantes y fríos verdes del fondo del valle crea una poderosa tensión visual. Es un paisaje que se siente a la vez atemporal y dinámico, moldeado por las fuerzas implacables del viento y el agua. Esta imagen es una producción colaborativa de Samuel Jeffery y Audrey Bergner para el Proyecto 23.

An extreme canted angle thrusts the viewer into a sun-drenched, narrow passageway between two high earthen walls in the heart of the Argentine Northwest. The warm, ochre tones of the smooth adobe and finished wooden surfaces dominate the frame, radiating the intense heat of the high-altitude Andean sun. Harsh, directional sunlight cuts a sharp, geometric diagonal across the paved floor, plunging the lower section into deep, cool shadow. Resting quietly within this wedge of darkness is a simple, slatted wooden crate, anchoring the composition with a touch of everyday rustic utility. The dizzying perspective creates a sense of spatial disorientation, forcing the eye to climb upward toward the narrow sliver of clear, cerulean sky. This architectural constriction is characteristic of traditional mountain settlements like Iruya, where structures cluster tightly against the rugged, unforgiving terrain. Peeking over the right wall, a glimpse of exposed red brickwork and a modern dark water tank reveal the quiet intersection of ancient building techniques and contemporary necessities. The textural interplay between the flawlessly smoothed left wall and the slightly more porous, mottled right wall adds profound tactile depth to the image. Utilizing a deep depth of field, the shot maintains crisp focus from the immediate textured foreground all the way to the distant rooftop utilities. It is a quiet, almost abstract study of light, geometry, and vernacular architecture hidden within the labyrinthine streets of the region. This image is a collaborative production by Samuel Jeffery and Audrey Bergner for Project 23.

Un ángulo holandés extremo empuja al espectador hacia un pasaje estrecho y bañado por el sol entre dos altos muros de tierra en el corazón del noroeste argentino. Los tonos cálidos y ocres del adobe liso y las superficies de madera acabada dominan el encuadre, irradiando el intenso calor del sol andino de gran altitud. La luz solar dura y direccional corta una diagonal nítida y geométrica a través del suelo pavimentado, sumergiendo la sección inferior en una sombra profunda y fresca. Descansando silenciosamente dentro de esta cuña de oscuridad hay un simple cajón de listones de madera, anclando la composición con un toque de utilidad rústica cotidiana. La perspectiva vertiginosa crea una sensación de desorientación espacial, forzando al ojo a subir hacia la estrecha franja de cielo claro y cerúleo. Esta constricción arquitectónica es característica de los asentamientos de montaña tradicionales como Iruya, donde las estructuras se agrupan estrechamente contra el terreno accidentado e implacable. Asomándose por encima del muro derecho, un vistazo de ladrillos rojos a la vista y un moderno tanque de agua oscuro revelan la silenciosa intersección entre las antiguas técnicas de construcción y las necesidades contemporáneas. La interacción textural entre la pared izquierda impecablemente alisada y la pared derecha ligeramente más porosa y moteada añade una profunda profundidad táctil a la imagen. Utilizando una gran profundidad de campo, la toma mantiene un enfoque nítido desde el primer plano texturizado inmediato hasta las utilidades distantes en los tejados. Es un estudio tranquilo y casi abstracto de la luz, la geometría y la arquitectura vernácula oculta dentro de las calles laberínticas de la región. Esta imagen es una producción colaborativa de Samuel Jeffery y Audrey Bergner para el Proyecto 23.

Colonia del Sacramento, Colonia Department, Uruguay: A textured, sun-bleached wall with a deep red finish commands attention along a narrow, historic cobblestone street. The architecture reflects centuries of colonial influence, where layers of weathered plaster reveal the structural history of this UNESCO World Heritage site. Lush white roses cascade gracefully from above, contrasting sharply against the rustic, uneven masonry of the aging facade. Soft, diffused natural light accentuates the deep grooves in the stone walkway, guiding the eye toward the inviting, dark wood door frame. The composition utilizes a shallow depth of field, blurring the background to isolate the intricate details of the building's exterior. One can almost sense the slow, rhythmic pace of life that defines this tranquil corner of the Rio de la Plata coastline. The contrast between the vibrant, blooming foliage and the crumbling pink walls creates a compelling visual narrative of decay and rebirth. This scene serves as a poignant reminder of the enduring beauty found in preserving architectural heritage against the relentless passage of time. Such historic districts are essential for understanding the unique cultural blending that characterizes Uruguayan coastal towns.

Colonia del Sacramento, Departamento de Colonia, Uruguay: Una pared texturizada y desgastada por el sol, con un acabado rojo profundo, domina la atención a lo largo de una estrecha y histórica calle empedrada. La arquitectura refleja siglos de influencia colonial, donde capas de yeso erosionado revelan la historia estructural de este sitio declarado Patrimonio de la Humanidad por la UNESCO. Exuberantes rosas blancas caen con gracia desde arriba, contrastando notablemente con la rústica e irregular mampostería de la fachada antigua. La luz natural, suave y difusa, acentúa las profundas ranuras en el camino de piedra, guiando la mirada hacia el acogedor marco de la puerta de madera oscura. La composición utiliza una profundidad de campo reducida, difuminando el fondo para aislar los detalles intrincados del exterior del edificio. Uno casi puede sentir el ritmo lento y pausado que define a este tranquilo rincón de la costa del Río de la Plata. El contraste entre el follaje vibrante y las desmoronadas paredes rosadas crea una narrativa visual cautivadora de decadencia y renacimiento. Esta escena sirve como un conmovedor recordatorio de la belleza perdurable que se encuentra al preservar el patrimonio arquitectónico frente al paso implacable del tiempo. Estos distritos históricos son esenciales para comprender la mezcla cultural única que caracteriza a las ciudades costeras uruguayas.
