Water
Water is essential to life.
Photographs in this gallery show oceans, glaciers, rivers as well as waterfalls, ice caves, reflective pools and mudholes. Beyond the natural landscape, people and animals play and work in the environments that water creates.
A classical element, it is associated with qualities of emotion and intuition.
