"The photographs for the Light and Shadow, Iceland series were taken in
Iceland in September 2024. Sunlight and shadow, mist and mountains, rock and

Photographs from Jana's Dawn at Mahone Bay series were featured in Luminous 2021, a photography exhibition at Heliconian Hall in Toronto
"While visiting Mahone Bay in Nova Scotia in the summer of
2019, I woke up early one morning and went
for a walk. It was dawn, and the sky over the sea was turning from
blue to orange… coolness in the air, the water still as glass, all very quiet. A breath before the world
awoke – a sense of anticipation and of hope."

Photographs from Jana's Crystal Moments and Frozen Treasures series were featured in Luminous 2020, a photography exhibition at Heliconian Hall in Toronto
"A burning bush in our garden is the source of Frozen Treasures.
Crystal Moments come from the countryside near where I live.
With every twig covered in ice, the trees take on the life of colour
and sparkle with an inner beauty in the light of the sunrise. Sunrise
is the beginning of a day not yet lived, a day we can fill with
whatever we choose. Sunrise brings promise and hope.”
Photographs from Jana's Upward series were featured in the Luminous 2019 photography exhibition at Heliconian Hall in Toronto
“In the summer of 2018, I traveled to Greece. An amazing country of light and colour, sun and shade, hills and valleys – everything is either uphill or up stairs! But the effort and energy it takes to climb can bring a breathtaking view, a quiet courtyard, or a blossom... Life often surprises us that way.”
