This series shows a visual dichotomy as the moon drifts on the shore of the galactic center, and closer the continents seemingly drift on the ocean. Does a similar illusion exist in the beyond from this perspective?

There is a great thrill from searching and exploring for that beautiful spot and waiting for or even finding the light. You begin your search months before, researching beauty's favorite spots. Then the hunt continues in person, and not just discovering beauty but showing it through your eyes. The high volume of landscape work today makes this more and more difficult, but the challenge makes the capture of a unique piece of beauty that much more rewarding.
