Afternoon in Varenna
Afternoon in Varenna captures the tranquil energy of Lake Como’s eastern shore. Taken from the promenade beside the harbour, this scene reveals the vibrant facades of Varenna’s iconic buildings as they rise from the water’s edge into lush hillside gardens.
A single white sailboat drifts in the foreground, while alpine peaks frame the background in soft haze. The composition balances natural beauty with the architectural charm of one of Italy’s most beloved lakeside villages.
The Geometry of Boscombe Pier
The Geometry of Boscombe Pier celebrates the elegant symmetry of one of Dorset's most recognisable coastal landmarks. First opened in 1889, Boscombe Pier has evolved through more than a century of restoration, combining its Victorian heritage with imaginative modern features, including the interactive Musical Walkway installed in 2014. At the centre of the composition stands one of the walkway's sculptural instruments, inviting visitors to experience the pier through both sight and sound. Framed by converging lines that draw the eye towards the horizon, this photograph transforms a familiar seaside scene into a timeless study of balance, perspective and light.
