Sea Gallery

The first successful seascape I made was of a wave at Sand Beach, Acadia National Park, Maine. It was an image of a wave caught at a unique time in its journey. A wave that danced. A wave that framed the islands behind. A wave that played with my imagination and confounded my sense of scale.

Since that moment more than ten years ago I have captured vast volcanic beaches in Iceland, rough foggy drama in Big Sur, ice-choked bays of Greenland, and the cold, unforgiving waters of Antarctica—as far away as possible from the warm, friendly clear-watered beaches of the Caribbean.

I am drawn to the power of waves and the loneliness and vastness of the horizon.

When shooting landscapes it is important to have some ideas about what I may want. That first wave drew me to search for ideal work for me to do seascapes.
