Ethereal Path

The sun is about to rise. Creating quietness in a perpetual disturbance. Accentuating the peaceful hours of the morning by producing a soft and ethereal effect on the waves of the ocean.
A calm ocean exactly as I dreamed it.

Ray Stone was born and raised in a quaint and beautiful village on the border of France and Germany.
From a young age he had the desire to explore different cultures. As he traveled, he experimented with different forms of art, including painting, sculptures and photography.

Photography is meditation and stillness to the mind, body and soul. It was in south of Thailand where Ray found his stillness. The monastery “Suan Mokkh” was the gateway to silence, peace and freedom.
