Seas
Through the Heart
The Milky Way captured among the palms of Laupahoehoe Point, on the northern shores of the Big Island of Hawaii, takes a meteor right through its heart.
Life Boat
The iconic jersey life boats in the early morning light.
Catch of the Sea
This image was captured in Anaeho'omalu Bay (aka A-Bay) in the Big Island of Hawaii. This structure was created by ancient Hawaiians to capture fish during the rising tides and lead them to an inland fishpond. Once captured, the fish were not able to escape and provided the inhabitants with a stable diet.
Castle Hill Lighthouse at Dawn
This image captures the iconic Castle Hill Lighthouse on a clear evening.
Sea Shells
Cotton candy skies reflect off the surf and sea shells that washed in with the morning tide.
Laupahoehoe Point
This image was captured while camping in Laupahoehoe Point on the northern shores of Hawaii's Big Island. While perched on the jagged volcanic rocks trying to capture the violent surf crashing through this inlet, I was thinking of the twenty four souls, including many school children, who parished at this very point during a tsunami that took place in 1946, known as the "April Fools Tsunami."
Sunrise at Ventnor Pier
As a resident in the dense humanity that is NYC, I charish escaping to the the South Jersey Shore, where the Ventnor Pier stands guard as a I surf its adjacent shorebreaks.
The Na'pali Coast
A hike along Kalepa Ridge in Koke'e State Park in Kauai, yields uncomprised views of the steep cliffs that lead straight down to the famous Kalalou Beach, over 4,000 feet below.
Seashells at the Seashore
Seashells washed up on Ventnor Beach during sunset.
Nightwatch
The day's first light breaks over Ventnor Pier as the lightposts finish their evening shift.
The Old Docks of Islamorada
This ghostly image of docks along the coast of Islamorada in the Florida Keys is made even more haunting by the fact that these docs and the surrounding area sustained immense damage during Hurricane Irma in 2017.
Moonrise under the Ventnor Pier
An epic moonrise breaks over the Atlantic Ocean as the Sun's last rays light up the pier.
Ghosts of the Boardwalk
In the first light before day break, the receding surf streaks across the sandy shores.
Between Then and Now
Rocky structures along Ho‘Okena Beach in the Big Island of Hawaii interact with the incoming surf. There's no plaque explaining its presense, adding to the mystery. At what point is something appointed to that separate, ancient world? The gentle slopes of Mauna Lao can be seen in the distance, peaking at 13,678 feet.
Kohanaiki Beach
The tidepools along the beach in Kohanaiki Beach seem to go on forever, created the perfect venue for watching those famous Kona sunsets. The volcanic fog drifting off Mauna Lao rarely fail to create otherworldly sunsets.
Fog on Castle Hill Lighthouse
A maritime fog breaks and illuminates the smooth rocks around the Castle Hill Lighthouse, but is still thick enough to cut the horizon short.
Ariel view of Waikiki
I always choose the window seat, especially during inter-island flights between the Hawaiian Islands. Honolulu can be seen with the famous Waikiki Beach and Diamond Head State Monument.
Hawaiian Shores
This image captures the essence of the northwestern coast of the Big Island of Hawaii with rough surf, jagged volcanic shores, and lush vegetation. A paradise but not without danger.
Volcanic Sunsets
The sun sets while perched high above the Pacific along the gentle slopes of Mauna Lao, close to Kona. The volcanic fog (vog) creates odd sunsets, where the sun takes on the vog's toxic hue as it dips into the Pacific.
