 The Last Swans

I captured these two beautiful Swans as they caught the evening light in Bowring Part in St John's Newfoundland,  To me they represented elegance and serenity. Tragically these two swans died of Avian Flu and were the last swans in Bowring Park. This fine art photo is a memory captured and would add an elegance to your decor, by its beauty alone notwithstanding the loss 

Apart from personal purchased I have sold this fine print to Chapels and Seniors Homes.

 Iceberg Fort Amherst

a massive iceberg grounded near Fort Amherst can create a striking juxtaposition. The iceberg's immense size, with 90% of its mass underwater, presents a dramatic contrast to the red and white lighthouse and the surrounding landscape68. The image, especially during the "blue hour" when the sun is just below the horizon, captures the serene yet powerful essence of the North Atlantic2. Such a scene emphasizes the natural beauty and maritime identity of St. John's, with the iceberg serving as a reminder of the region's unique environment3.
