My Doorway into Eco-Sensory Photography That Helped Reweave the Boundary Between Self and Landscape

Eco-sensory photography, as I understand and practice it, goes beyond merely documenting nature. It’s about the process of embedding myself within it. My camera becomes a kind of tuning fork, heightening awareness of colour, shape, texture, sound, smell and movement. The more I slow down, the more I feel rooted. The more I look, the more I also listen. My practice is experiential and reflexive—often blending aesthetics, an awakening activism through conceptual enquiry and a mental acquisitiveness to learn more. For me, this process overlaps seamlessly with therapeutic photography when practiced in nature as a space for healing or embodied presence, reweaving self and setting.
