Back to work

Stilla vatten

Autumn crossings between islands, where the sea turns the colour of pewter and the ferries keep their unhurried schedule regardless.

Stockholm archipelago

The archipelago empties in October. What remains is water, rock, pine and a very small number of people who prefer it that way.

I worked from the deck of the same boat for three weeks, learning which stretches of the route gave me mist and which gave me glare.

Stillness is difficult to photograph without making it look like absence. This series is my closest attempt.
