Stewart Mannnig, Last Light in Stone (LANDSCAPE 2026)

As evening light fades across Bryce Canyon, two hikers trace the rim above a vast field of hoodoos. The composition balances human scale against geological time, allowing depth and colour to unfold naturally as the day gives way to dusk. The intent was to preserve the softness of the final light rather than amplify it, presenting the landscape as experienced in the moment.
