I’m John Rees. I write and make photographs — slowly, quietly, and with an eye for what often goes unseen.
For four decades, I led a successful and busy life in the technology and consulting world, travelling globally and working at pace. I now live peacefully and creatively in the heart of Snowdonia National Park in North Wales — 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.
History, Memory, and the Human Thread
Writing, photography, and quiet reflection in a world that won’t stop shouting
I write historical fiction interwoven with fact and emotional truth. My first novel, Unseen Souls, is a work in progress.
Photography has always been a quiet passion — and living in North Wales is a photographer’s dream.
In a world often filled with noise, anger, and division, my Journal offers something quieter: short, positive reflections shared each day — a small light in a noisy world.
