Close To Calm
Close to Calm is a celebration of the landscapes we often overlook. The familiar places right outside our door. Through years of photographing within an hour of home, I’ve discovered that true beauty isn’t found in distant, dramatic locations but in understanding the rhythms of local light, weather, and seasons. This book is about connection, about slowing down and seeing deeply, and about the quiet joy of capturing fleeting moments as they unfold in familiar locations that mean so much.

Mads Peter Iversen, a great friend and incredible photographer has written the Foreword in the book. He, like me, dismissed his more local areas and sought his landscape photography further afield. But more recently his landscape images from Denmark are testament to what is possible and available directly in front of you. Landscape photography is all about finding that beauty in the familiar and Mads has done that so well in Denmark and the landscapes around where he lives. It is a great honour to have his words in this book.
