Blanketed in fresh snow and surrounded by still, clear water, these small islands in the 1000 Islands region sit in quiet solitude. In the off-season, the tourists vanish, the boats go silent, and only locals witness this hush—when the river feels untouched, ancient, and waiting. Captured by Duncan Rawlinson, this aerial photograph captures the raw, reflective stillness of Ivy Lea in winter, where nature breathes and time slows.

Captured by Duncan Rawlinson, this aerial perspective invites reflection on the ever-changing yet timeless forces shaping the landscape.

In the collection “Chiseled Light: Marble Textures,” Duncan Rawlinson masterfully constructs a visual enigma, blurring the line between the conceivable and the fantastical. The images, woven with the precision of artificial intelligence, display the classic beauty of marbled patterns set against the stark defiance of geometric forms. This body of work invites the observer to ponder the impossibilities laid before them, compelling a second glance to unravel the visual trickery. Each piece is an intentional paradox, sculpting a narrative that both grounds and disorients, coaxing the viewer to confront the illusion of possibility that marbles and angles so intricately convey.
