A farewell to the day, this image reflects solitude, purpose, and the rhythm of daily work. In Rowing Home the Schoof-Stuff, Peter Henry Emerson captures a reed cutter gliding through the still waters of the Norfolk Broads, his silhouette mirrored in the dusk. It honors the dignity of labor and the peace in routine - ideal for someone entering a new season of rest or reflection. Send to someone on your mind, or to mark a quiet turning point.
