A wide angle landscape photograph capturing a secluded white farmhouse nestled into the vibrant, rolling green hills of Albury. The undulating terrain is dotted with scattered eucalyptus trees and patches of red earth, with a dense forest line in the foreground. In the bottom right corner, a watermark features an outline of Australia containing the text "Kev Peirce Photography."

Where the rolling green hills meet the quiet call of home.

A layered mountain landscape with a rocky spire rising from dense forest in the foreground, receding blue ridgelines in the distance, and a pale, softly lit sky above. Horizontal bands of land and atmosphere create a sense of depth and suspension between ground and sky.

Suspended Between

Layers holding the eye in place - neither grounded nor lifted, just suspended.

A quiet riverside scene: a fallen tree lies partially submerged in still water, its weathered trunk stretching through golden reeds. The reeds form a gentle boundary between water and land, with trees in the background casting soft reflections across the surface. The natural palette is muted and earthy, evoking calm and stillness.

Fallen, Not Forgotten—Cradled by Reeds, Framed by Stillness.

Beneath the Southern Cross I fly, this is Australia.

Over the back paddock last night a Magpie flies away from my neighbours Southern Cross windpump.

Postcard sized watercolour painting of Pink Lake in Esperance in Western Australia. Calm water mirrors the sky and distant shoreline.

The third piece in my postcard-sized watercolour series: Pink Lake. Capturing a moment of perfect stillness, the calm waters mirror the sky and distant shoreline. A quiet tribute to a changing landscape. DM for enquiries
