Written by Jon Mckechnie Springboard State of Mind Welcome to Edition 40!  Born on Montreal’s island-city, Annick Jaquillard moves between vast landscapes and graphic precision. Inspired by dawn’s quiet light, she seeks not just to capture a moment, but to let it linger. Her eye, shaped by design, reveals nature with gratitude and grace. Whether photographing a lake, the Alps, or a wedding day, her images are intimate, intentional, and deeply human. Setting the scene from Vaud, Switzerland, Annick explains: " More than a decade ago I started to photograph different springboards around the lake. Each one was a discovery of a new location, a beautiful one. The springboard of Lutry - fantasy and fun for all." Thanks Annick! Now, let’s tap into the latest from the Community...    LATEST VERO UPDATES    Culture Club
