Calm water and grass | Limited Edition of 10
A Quiet Morning Captured in a Minimalist Natural Scene
Stillness has a sound if you listen closely enough. That’s the quiet I remember when I took this image—early morning, somewhere north of ordinary, where the water doesn’t ripple unless the wind asks permission.
This print, Calm Water and Grass is as much about absence as it is about presence. No distractions. No noise. Just the soft brush of shoreline grasses reaching out toward a mirror-smooth lake that doesn’t seem to end. That moment stood still long enough for me to press the shutter and walk away, knowing I had what I needed.
I’ve always found that nature when stripped down to its essentials—just water, grass, and light—speaks the loudest. This isn’t a dramatic mountain vista or a tropical seascape screaming for attention. It’s the in-between. The place where nothing happens, but everything settles. And that’s exactly what makes it as powerful as wall art. It creates space. Space to breathe, to focus, to come back to yourself.
Perfect for rooms that need grounding—offices, bedrooms, reading corners—this piece has a natural neutrality that blends well with minimalist decor, rustic textures, or modern clean lines. I hand-sign every print, and each order is carefully made to order in my studio. It’s not just a scene—it’s a mood captured and printed with purpose.
If you’re drawn to the quieter side of nature, or you want your space to carry that sense of peaceful presence, Calm Water and Grass is exactly the kind of wall art that belongs in your collection.
If you’re the kind of person who notices the soft light falling on lake grasses or the way wildflowers lean into the wind, you’ll find that same quiet wonder in my Haliburton Photography Collection and the still serenity of the Lakes Photography Collection.

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.
