Publisher Note

Photographs taken as a sequence on a journey in Latvia, December 2023.

A fleeting glimpse of an unfamiliar landscape seen through the window of a moving car - trees, snow and winter sunlight. Not perhaps the hoped for Christmas snowfall, but just enough to change the light.

Seen as a whole the pictures merge and become one vague terrain, a continuous ‘hurry’ to borrow from the last lines of the poem ‘Postscript’ by Seamus Heaney.

“Useless to think you’ll park and capture it
More thoroughly. You are neither here nor there,
A hurry through which known and strange things pass
As big soft buffetings come at the car sideways
And catch the heart of guard and blow it open.”
