“The purpose of a storyteller is not to tell you how to think, but to give you questions to think upon.”

Brandon Sanderson, The Way of Kings

I just came back from a lovely few days in Scotland, home to such a photogenic, mystical, ever-changing landscape. And a land of storytellers.

“Try to imagine a life without timekeeping.

You probably can’t. You know the month, the year, the day of the week. There is a clock on your wall or the dashboard of your car. You have a schedule, a calendar, a time for dinner or a movie.

Yet all around you, timekeeping is ignored. Birds are not late. A dog does not check its watch. Deer do not fret over passing birthdays. an alone measures time.

Man alone chimes the hour.

And, because of this, man alone suffers a paralyzing fear that no other creature endures.

A fear of time running out.”

― Mitch Albom, The Time Keeper

An old image... going through and updating the folio at peterfranc.com

I've been updating my folio on peterfranc.com. If you've a moment, stop past and check out the new galleries as they're being updated over the next weeks.

The latest addition is the Socotra Island gallery - a totally updated and re-processed collection. Almost every photo has only been minimally altered from the RAW file - a bit of colour conversion and exposure correction and cropping. They're more natural and feel together as a set - something that kept me from finally 'signing them off'. Over 3 years later, they finally feel like they're ready to showcase to a larger audience.
