History, Memory, and the Human Thread

Writing, photography, and quiet reflection in a world that won’t stop shouting

I’m John Rees. I write and make photographs — slowly, quietly, and with an eye for what often goes unseen.

After four decades in global business, I now live in Snowdonia, drawn to the stories, landscapes, and everyday truths that modern life tends to overlook.

This is my quiet corner of the web — a place to share my stories, photography, and daily reflections on what still matters.
