I thought I’d share the story behind my Genius Loci Digest, which is more than just a travel diary. After a breakdown in my 30s, it became a salve—helping me untangle anxiety, find solace, and move forward by connecting deeply with the places around me. 🌿 #Thread
Thanks Keith
Wonderful Meditation on an ancient forest 🙏

Early rise. Heading over to London today for a catch up with friends.

✨When the world feels loud and unsettled, I return to places that have endured.

Chesham Woods, ancient trees, and the parallel intelligence of networks older than nations.

🌄 Simple things. A bit of light and warmth to counteract the wet and dark days. I think this is my all time favourite photo that I've taken of Beverley Minster - soft and nuanced, mist over Westwood Common, a cuticle sunrise and a simple silhouette. #thread #ThrowbackThursday

✨😯 The wondrous Romanesque crypt at St. Mary, Lastingham, Yorkshire - a space where ancient crosses and carvings seem to emerge from the surface - reminding us of its rooted history.

✨From the archives: St Mary’s, Breamore in Hampshire, is one of the most complete late Anglo-Saxon churches we have — a building that’s held its ground for over a millennium. Here I photographed it with the Elizabethan Breamore House behind it, two eras folded into one view.

✨A bit of warmth and light for the darker and wetter days.

John Ruskin described Lincoln Cathedral as “out and out the most precious piece of architecture in the British Isles.”

The view from the castle is truly otherworldly, rising above the city. #thread

✨Inside the medieval roof timbers at Beverley Minster, Yorkshire, one of the rafters has been dated (c. 921) and was a sapling during the reign of King Æthelstan, before England was an entity.
Touch it and you feel a kind of altitude and sense that the past is cheek by jowl.

Looking for Santa’s grotto. Accidentally found the entire workforce instead. Edinburgh Santa Dash today.

Sunday Read (📸 my art): "In the journey from moor to crypt, from macrocosm to microcosm, the land gathers the wider story; the crypt concentrates it. And somewhere between the two, I’m reminded that we are not separate from the places we walk through." 👉 www.digest.andymarshall.co/andy-marshal...

✨ A few years back I stood outside Wells Cathedral for a full day and photographed the impact of the light on the front facade. I was amazed at the outcome - at how a single entity could morph and change under the changing light. 🌅 #thread

✨ Breathtaking beauty. One of my favourite pockets of space - the organic and arborous 🪾C13th chapter house at Lincoln Cathedral. 📸 taken with my tilt shift lens.

🌍🪐✨ St. Mary Lastingham, Yorks - out of this world.

"This place - the journey to it, the aura, the echoes, the muted light, the Saxon remnants and the Romanesque - has lifted my anxious self into a more rooted sense of the world."
