Known for his evocative landscape and wildlife photography that often tells stories of movement, freedom, and the rawness of nature, this image, titled "A Picture", stands apart. It reflects a rare pause — a breath held between moments.The photograph features a sun-bleached wooden disc hanging loosely on a weathered wire, suspended beside an old-fashioned jar. Both dangle quietly from an overhead beam, fixed against the soft grain of a rough-cut wooden post. The background blurs into a dreamy wash of light and shape, suggesting the world is moving — but here, in this one small space, time is still. Light pours in, almost too bright to bear, wrapping the objects in a gentle warmth and drawing the viewer into their simplicity.This was not a planned shot. Keith hadn’t ventured out to capture objects, nor did he seek to compose a piece of minimalist art. But something about this scene — the stillness, the rustic charm, the gentle sway of the hanging wire in the soft breeze — called to him. It whispered of a quieter life, of the spaces in between our busy thoughts, of the beauty we often walk past and never see.Keith describes this moment as one that “moved him in a way that words couldn’t fully explain.” It wasn’t dramatic or loud; it wasn’t wild or untamed like the wilderness he usually captures. Instead, it was peaceful. Honest. Present. And that feeling — the feeling of being grounded in the present, of noticing the beauty in the forgotten corners — was something he felt compelled to share."A Picture" is more than just a photo. It’s a memory of presence, a gentle reminder to slow down, to look around, and to see that even the smallest, quietest moments can stir the soul. Comments
