Love these photos and the behind the scenes of your process of writing your book Laura! I loved the words from Nan as well. The reminder I needed to pick up my camera this week
This new book sounds beautiful. The images are wonderful, love the nan shepherd quote. Im about to take a trip to Ireland and am planning to capture the road trip in images and words. Thanks for the inspiration
So interesting.. (there's something about a cemetery, especially an old one!) I love the idea of "shimmering edges" - I have this old photograph (black and white but now more sepia like) of my grandmothers bedroom window; with the starched white cotton curtain -slightly turned at the bottom by the summer breeze and lace draped over the edge of her dresser.. it feels like dreaming out loud to me) 💛
A gorgeous way of framing why and what we write. Collecting and bringing those shimmering pictures together is certainly an art form. Thank you for the irresistible taster of Chasing Fog, I look forward to reading it!
Oh goodness. Thank you for this taster. There are many landscapes here that draw me. I love the Joan Didion quote. At the edges I am recently sensing and knowing that every day now is a bonus day, that my work here is done though I would love more practice at life. Thank you. Off to pre order.
Gorgeous! And Nan Shepherd's words always.... her writing transformed how I spend time in the mountains. Can't wait for the book Laura!
Thank you Kelly! 💚
You had me at “Joan Didion” 😉 Love the photos and the stories they suggest.
Thank you Lori!

So glad you enjoyed it, Hannah. Thank you for reading ✨
Beautiful images, Laura! Excited to see them tied together in your book.
Thank you so much Jen! ✨
Oh my hometown of Edinburgh has made its way into your book! I’m fairly new to Nan Shepherd’s words, but they speak to me, too ✨
Yes! A whole chapter in and around Edinburgh searching for the haar… ✨
I have a chapter featuring the haar in my own wee project. It’s about the Outer Hebrides 🌊
Ohhh, sounds wonderful!
Congratulations! I've been noticing the shimmer but not taking the steps to express it. Recently posted on my Substack to release those inhibitions. 🌻
Noticing the shimmer is everything ✨✨✨
