Nature does not take sides.
Ice sharpens with force, yet melts with warmth.

The world feels divided
one half in turmoil, the other in worried quiet.
But even the hardest edges can soften.

May we find the calm that holds us together.

Thomas does it again. Pure art! Beautiful textures in an amazing location matched with ‘four graces’

The earth does not adapt to us.
Hard. Uneven. Indifferent.

A body meets what does not yield.

Not as opposition,
but as alignment
where weight becomes presence,
and acceptance becomes form.

“The weight of being” / 2023

The Ensō is never meant to be perfect.
It records the moment it was made,
Nothing more, nothing less.

Nothing is perfect.
The body remains human:
Imperfect & enough.

“Resonance” / 2025

#AerialBodies series - “Resonance”

Not just skin,
but soil.
Not just curve,
but shelter.
In the quiet dark,
we find ourselves.

This art carries themes of protection, rebirth and the body's intrinsic relationship to the land.

The year’s end is always a time for reflection; to measure our successes and failures, our adventures and regrets, our joy and sorrow.
It’s a chance to pause, to roam the busy skies of the mind and see from above what truly moves within.

In times of great stress... (Christmas shopping)... one must meditate to keep their sanity intact.

The textures of nature are among the most beautiful of the world. Sometimes I can look for hours at lines and shapes in the sand. Is it beauty, or is it because I grew up near the beach with sand where it shouldn't be?

I am a mountain lover. "The mountains are calling and I must go". #johnMuir The beauty of the near-symmetric peak of the #Matterhorn in the #alps is overwhelming.

Go there and soak it all in. Breathe. Ground yourself.

Grateful to receive a ReFocus Honourable Mention for my work.

"Origin" speaks to themes of origin, vulnerability, and our intrinsic rootedness in the earth.
Gratitude to all who engage with art that seeks depth over distraction.

Above, the human body is connecting with nature; powerful and pure.
Below, the ocean tide advances, amplifying the sense of time, impermanence, and surrender.
It's a ritual of connection and renewal.

What’s the place in #nature where you feel most alive?
Share a photo if you have one.

For me: it's rocks. They symbolize the sublime, they overwhelm reason, stirring both terror and pleasure, reminding us of nature’s might.

And as a creative, when inspiration hits... You roll with it together with a talented model like @ameliebelain.bsky.social

Sometimes the most important part of a shoot is standing still until the world slows down again.

And then... inspiration hits.

Apparently you can't fix your life by being in nature... but it does help a whole lot to disconnect from the digital world and to ground ourselves back to our natural self, our roots.
We are hanging on a digital thread. Come back down to earth and reconnect with your authentic self.

We forgot how beautiful an unfiltered human body is.
Not perfect. Not polished.
Simply alive.
I spend my days trying to capture that feeling.

Hi, I’m Ruben.
I make photographs that help people remember that we belong to nature.
Landscapes, bodies, silence and everything that feels real.
Good to meet you.
