Large green propane tank with palm trees in the background.
View from uphill down the lush green hill to the Pacific ocean. In the foreground are 6 metal poles with triangular tops cemented along a line in a low lava rock wall.
A beautiful local salad full of colorful veggies and edible flowers.
A rusting pole in the foreground, painted orange-yellow, on a concrete pier with a concrete wall border. The early morning sky is deep blue with artificial light shining on the wall and casting a shadow of the pole onto the wall.

A black and white photo of some stone steps at John Rylands Library Manchester. Opposite are two drystone pillars. Most of the photo is in darkness with light from above lighting up sections of the steps
A photo of a wooden table and white chair at a cafe. On the right is a green framed window with a metal shutter outside pulled down. Light from outside is creating diagonal shadows to fall onto the wall behind. The word cafe is written on the window and is also falling onto the wall as a shadow
A black and white photo of a barren grassy landscape. On the horizon is a lone tree. There is a band of fluffy white clouds above with clear sky above
A close photo of a changing cubicle at Victoria Baths Manchester. A concrete wall to the left and a grey concrete wall behind. A blue wooden seat is attached to the wall

A low-angle, nighttime shot looking up past the corner of a house and a flagpole. The new Minnesota state flag with its dark blue North Star shape hangs against a dramatic sky. A bright moon is shrouded in a thick, textured layer of swirling "milk-and-honey" clouds that create a glowing, iridescent halo effect.
A candid, slightly gritty street-level scene captured through the window of a Metro Transit bus. Inside, a person wearing a vibrant orange camouflage jacket and a "Twins" baseball beanie sits with their head down. A transit police officer in a dark uniform leans over to the person to offer assistance. Yellow "Priority Seating" signs are visible on the glass, reflecting the cool interior light.
A vibrant architectural study of a historic red brick Victorian home in Saint Paul's Ramsey Hill. The warm, late-afternoon sun hits the facade, highlighting ornate green and red floral "as-cast" textures in the gables. A large, bare-branched oak tree in the foreground bisects the frame, casting long, sharp shadows across the masonry and many-paned windows.
A vertical shot from a crowd's perspective, looking toward a large outdoor jumbotron. On the screen, a close-up shows Bruce Springsteen performing with a guitar and harmonica. In the foreground, the backs of people's heads are visible, bundled in winter hats and leather jackets, capturing a moment of community during a crisp, early spring NoKings protest.

A four-image collage featuring three high-contrast black and white photographs and one colour photograph. Top Left: A black and white, high-contrast interior shot of John in silhouette, waiting in his house before a hospital appointment. He sits in an armchair next to a large window with vertical blinds, which cast long, rhythmic shadows across the floor. Top Right: A black and white close-up from the photo project "Marginal Waters," showing a white metal railing overlooking dark, rippling water. A paper sign is tied to the railing that reads "WET PAINT ON RAILINGS" in bold, capital letters. Bottom Left: A black and white wide-angle shot taken while travelling through an empty Glasgow Central station on a return trip from Dumfries. Sunlight streams through the large glass and metal arched roof, illuminating the platform where a lone figure stands in the distance. Bottom Right: A colour photograph representing an intentional shift toward adding more colour photography to my work. It features two large green industrial waste bins branded "Inverclyde Council" tucked under a modern, beige concrete overhang that frames a decorative metal gate.
