A single sailboat on the still Curonian Lagoon under a pale sky

Rosalind Ashbyphotographer · Nida

I photograph the Curonian Spit

Sand dunes, the lagoon, pine forests and old wooden houses. These are my series of photographs. If one speaks to you, you can have it printed.

See the photographs Prints

The lagoon, August 2019

Dunes

Evening light on sand and dry grass. Paths everyone walks, and paths the wind soon wipes away.

The lagoon

Still water and a low horizon. Now and then a sail appears, and the whole frame becomes about it.

5 photographs · Curonian Lagoon

One sail

Pines

Tall trunks and long shadows. Light only reaches the forest between the trees, so the frames here are tall.

5 photographs · the forests of the Spit

Houses

Wooden houses under old trees, a lighthouse, and a seaside village seen from the lagoon.

4 photographs · Preila and Nida

I’m Rosalind, I photograph in Nida

I came to Nida from Norfolk for one summer and stayed. Mostly I photograph the Curonian Spit. The light changes every hour there, and a place you think you know looks different each time.

I work slowly and take few pictures. I would rather have one photograph you want to hang on the wall than a hundred you walk past.

I photograph: landscapes and old houses
I print: myself, in small editions
I work: in Nida, since 2014

A photograph on your wall

Every photograph can be printed on thick fine-art paper. I sign and number each print, and make no more than 20 of any one photograph.

Whose photographs these are

Rosalind Ashby is made up, and the photographs are real. They were taken on the Curonian Spit in August 2019 by the photographer Alexey Komarov, and are published on Wikimedia Commons under the licence CC BY-SA 4.0. I only resized and cropped them; such adaptations stay under the same licence.

This is only one example

Your site would be about you and would look quite different: other colours, another typeface, another layout, and photographs that are your own. A photographer needs a gallery of series and prints; someone else needs something else entirely.

Tell me who you are and what you want to show, and I will suggest what your site could be.
