The Industrial Glow

Here’s a shot from my San Francisco and California series that almost slipped through the cracks—a bright red-and-white Manson crane, standing still against the Bay Bridge during golden hour.

Morning On Main Street

Golden Fields at Hornstra Farms

The beautiful golden sunrise creates a warm glow over the fields at Hornstra Farms in Norwell, Massachusetts. For over a century, the Hornstra Family has proudly delivered Grade A milk and dairy products to South Shore families, preserving a tradition of quality and care.
Dockside Torii

Something about the dock’s frame caught my eye—it reminded me of a traditional torii gate.
