Yin and Yang

International Landscape Photographer of the Year, 2021, Finalist, top 101 images. Silver Award, Landscape Portfolio, 2021 360PhotoAwards.

The Ship and the Seagull

Bronze Award, 2021 EPSON International Pano Awards. While on an evening stroll, these fantastic light beams broke through the dense cloud cover, perfectly illuminating the ship on the horizon.

A Cuban's Cuban

Bronze Award, People, 2021 360PhotoAwards. Enjoying a break with his cigar, I was taken aback by the sheer strength in this mans eyes, the wrinkles in his face witness to a long, and probably hard, life. The immaculately clean shirt, the newspaper carefully folded, protecting his pants, all underscoring his proud presence. A moment I will not soon forget. Trinidad, Cuba

All Legs
