Morning Stillness, Evening Glow

Early one morning, many years ago, I set out for Chombe, not far from here. My goal: to capture the sunrise over Lake Malawi. As the first rays of light slowly spread across the water, the landscape quietly came to life. On the shore lay stones of all shapes and colours – some still just touched by the rippling water.

A few days later, I returned, this time to photograph the sunset over that same lake. The atmosphere was different, but just as powerful. The sky turned deep orange and the shadows of the stones grew longer, as if the landscape was preparing itself for the night.

Cheers,
