The ghats of Varanasi conclude this travelogue from almost a month of travelling with my lens, and with an important birthday in our family today, I find myself reflecting upon the nature of beginnings and endings.

Reflections is a daily podcast featuring short thoughts on life, creativity, and how ordinary days unfold. Each episode is a single spoken piece, shaped by years spent watching people and moments through a camera, sometimes about the art of photography, and sometimes the act of life.

Read more about adventuring the world with a camera, and the tours we organise through The Journey Beyond.

Some episodes sit with making things, others wander into work, travel, memories, or the habit of noticing what tends to be overlooked. Nothing is explained or wrapped up neatly. These are just honest reflections, shared one at a time.

Reflections are there for the in-between moments of the day. Something to listen to while you're doing something else, and a chance to recognise a feeling, a thought, or a moment you might have had yourself.
