'Across The Water'
New Forest, England

Artist - Michael Hartley

In this fast-paced world, we can easily get distracted from what is good for us - or see what we might need. Even a short amount of time in nature can charge our batteries, ground us, and gently remind us of the important aspects of life. Nature is a very rewarding place, on many levels.

This piece is from one of my visits to nature, where I captured a certain stillness. I don't generally plan my photography. I like to see what beauty is there on the day.
