Peace bridge Derry Northern Ireland | Limited Edition of 10
Peace Bridge Derry: A Symbol of Unity and Hope
As I wandered the streets of Derry, Northern Ireland, my path led me to the Peace Bridge, a symbol of unity and progress. This bridge, a marvel of modern design, stretches gracefully across the river Foyle, connecting communities once divided. On that overcast day, I stood, captivated by the elegance of its curves and the silent stories it whispered of reconciliation and hope.
Constructed in 2011, the Peace Bridge is more than just a pathway for pedestrians and cyclists; it's a testament to the city's journey towards a harmonious future. The bridge, with its suspension design and towering pylons standing 36 meters high, embodies the strength found in unity. Its 312-meter-long span serves as a physical connection and a bridge between hearts and minds, urging us to ponder the beauty of togetherness in a world often marked by divisions.
This black and white photograph accentuates the bridge's architectural beauty and the day's solemnity. The monochrome tones draw attention to the contrast between the sweeping lines of the bridge and the cloudy sky above, highlighting the bridge's role as a beacon of progress amidst uncertainty.
The cityscape composition of this image is a deliberate choice, inviting viewers to traverse the bridge with their eyes, to feel the weight of its significance, and to appreciate the delicate balance between modern and traditional architecture. It's a visual narrative of Derry's resilience, a city moving forward without forgetting its past.
In framing the Peace Bridge, I sought to capture its physical form and reflect on what it represents: a stride toward understanding and peace. This image is more than a fine art photograph; it's an invitation to reflect on our paths to build and cross in our lives.

Limited Edition of 10
This photograph is released as a signed and numbered limited edition of only 10 prints in total across all available sizes combined—not 10 prints in each size.
Every size is drawn from the same edition. Whether the photograph is purchased as a small print or at the largest available size, it uses one of the 10 edition numbers.
I personally sign and number each print on the reverse, and every print is accompanied by a signed Certificate of Authenticity recording its title, dimensions, medium, edition number, and date of issue.
Once all 10 prints have been sold, the edition will be permanently closed. No additional numbered editions of the photograph will be produced in another size or format.
Premium Archival Fine Art Prints
I personally produce every photograph using archival pigment inks on premium archival paper with a subtle luster finish.
The paper provides rich tonal depth, excellent fine-detail reproduction, and a refined surface that reduces distracting glare under normal indoor lighting. It is especially well suited to both color and black-and-white photography.
Each photograph is sold as an unframed fine art print, allowing it to be framed according to the collector’s space and personal style.
Before a print leaves my studio, I carefully inspect it for color, tonal accuracy, surface quality, and overall presentation. Nothing is outsourced, and every finished print passes through my hands.
Worldwide Delivery Included
Every print is personally produced, inspected, signed, numbered, and carefully packaged by me at my studio in Haliburton, Ontario, Canada.
Worldwide delivery is included in the listed price, so there is no additional shipping charge added during checkout. I select an appropriate tracked delivery service based on the destination, print size, and current shipping requirements.
Delivery times vary by destination and may be affected by customs processing or circumstances beyond my control.
Because I also travel extensively to create new photographic work, studio dispatch may occasionally be delayed while I am away. When that happens, the print will be produced and shipped as soon as I return to the studio.
