Early morning at Pepperskär Hamnen

Cities and Memory - remixing the world

"A sleepy harbour at Pepperskär on the island of Järsö, 12km south of Mariehamn, Åland's capital. It's just after 7am on a Sunday. The roe deer on the road vanish into the woods as I arrive, the gulls haven't yet flown in from the rocky havens in the bay.
"A slight breeze stirs the tide to softly lap the the wood-clad harbour walls and the hulls of the handful of boats moored therein. Alongside the rough cawing of early rising crows, and the calls of various smaller birds filling acoustic niches as they rouse, a lone grey heron remains silent."
