Midmorning March 3rd, 2020

It’s funny, I have a desire to make some night photos but the bright sunlight keeps pulling me back. This time of year I can feel myself get unwound from a winter of sunlight starvation. My mood picks up, projects present themselves and, I’m making more work that I like.

Seeing the sun on the ocean is something that never really gets old. This image was made at Camp Cronin, on what remained of a concrete bunker from World War Two. I don’t know why I haven’t gone out for a night sequence recently. Probably because it is cold. That’s a good reason.

Spring and summer will find me lookin with love into the darkness.
