Room to Breathe 4

Room to Breathe 4

Part of a Limited Edition series

Silent witness to the awe of sunrise bringing promise of new, new chances, new experiences, new possibilities – taking a moment to breathe a moment for appreciation of life of you

When I stop, pause, world passing around me – let it – I recognise that no matter what I do have possibilities, choices, room to breathe and be and become.

Room to Breathe is a series that means a lot to me 

Thinking of a time when I’ve needed room to breathe, one in particular came immediately to mind during lockdown – before I took up photography.

Although I live in a beautiful part of the world, living and working alone in my small cottage during lockdown the walls started closing in and I felt claustrophobic. I started getting up to go for morning walks and I’d see the sun rise. 

I found a magical feeling walking that time in the morning. I rarely met anyone – I had the space the room to breathe and no-one to greet and in so doing break the magic, the quiet spell of the morning. i felt so lucky, so privileged to be there.

I remembered the times I wished I had somewhere comfortable to sit to watch the magic unfold with a morning coffee and so the idea for this series was born.

I could visualise a wingback armchair in the field with someone sitting arm draped holding a cup of coffee.  I needed to figure out whether it would work so dragging a kitchen chair one morning to test the idea, best location in the field 

It took a couple of months to get all in place- the chair, the person, the weather… 

To carry the sense of magic unfolding I’ve chosen a series of 4 two in the blue before sunrise and two in the golden light as the sun emerges on a new day.

I hope in these images you feel the space, the peace the magic of the morning and it will make you stop and take the room to breathe and find a bit more inner peace.
