- Rock, Water, and Color - The sequence alternates broad landscape views with closer studies of people, foliage, and concrete before recognizable scenery gives way to overlapping colors and linear marks.
- Between Deck and Open Water - Water, deck surfaces, railings, reflections, people, and distant land establish changing scales between the boat and its surroundings.
- Along the Waterline - Changes in scale, backlighting, and natural framing connect boats, a small turtle, distant figures, palms, reflective water, and the low sun.
- Fronds, Shore, and Ship - A study of changing scale across foliage, recreational beach space, open water, maritime architecture, and people within large white structures.
- Loosies (2) - A loose sequence of standalone frames held together by water: views down from a ship's height, an abstract pane of hazy light, one crowded burst of costumed musicians, and wide, nearly empty beaches.
- Sunset - A three-frame study of a single low sun over open water: the sun on the horizon, an overlapping translucent structure sharing the same sky, and the amber horizon light that remains once no sun is visible.
- Shoreline to Backroad - Eight frames that begin at the waterline under overcast light, brighten into a sunlit beach with a posed pair, and end on a road with a motorcycle rider and a cattle truck.
- A Snow-Capped Peak Above Layered Ridgelines - A sequence of high-altitude views looking down across layered ridgelines toward one recurring snow-capped peak, its position, haze, and framing shifting from frame to frame.
- A River Evening: Swimmers, Herons, and a Freight Train - An eight-frame sequence that opens under a railroad trestle where people swim and jump from graffiti-covered piers, moves to herons and shorebirds working the rapids and rock flats at sunset, pauses on a close study of...
- A Ridge at Dusk: Sun, Sky, and a Dead Tree - A six-frame sequence that tracks the light fading over a ridge overlook, from a sunlit sky and a brief sun flare through layered mountain views to a dead tree silhouetted against the sun at dusk.
- A Foggy Night at the Marina - Seven night frames that move from a foggy shoreline and a fog-bound street through lamplit docks to moored sailboats and powerboats, closing on an elevated view of the marina in the mist.
- Snow Lines Above Dark Water - Dark water and a low forested band hold the base of distant white slopes.
- Horizon Afterglow - Four views hold the same fading light across changing horizontal and vertical frames.
- Dusk Across Open Water - Muted horizons gradually introduce traces of travel: string lights, window frames, and a white wake.
- Ice From Above - The flight draws close to crevasses, meltwater, snowfields, and waterfalls at the glacier edge.
- Wooded Water Crossing - The sequence watches shorelines open and close across a broad moving body of water.
- Pale Horizons Under Clouds - Vertical views of open water resolve into a wider landscape where a distant ridge meets softened rain light.
- Forest, Water, and Carved Forms - The sequence shifts between close surface detail and wider views shaped by rain, timber, moss, and moving water.
- Cliffside Ritual and Sea - The camera alternates between ceremonial details, open water, cliff faces, descending paths, and animals near the walls.
- Deck Lines at Sea - The view shifts from surrounding boats to the bow, then downward across water, planks, and passengers.
- Cliff Path and Cove - The sequence moves from a high turquoise cove down through the built edges of a hillside path.
- Snow Across the Waterline - Low contrast and drifting focus carry the view from a snowy terrace to distant trees and a dim boat light.
- Between Wood, Rock, and Current - Close textures open gradually toward rapids before returning to an animal sheltered beneath a vehicle.
- Island Edges and Greenery - The sequence moves between cultivated walls and open terrain, returning repeatedly to faces and dense leaves.
- Summit Light and Domes - Cloud decks and long shadows flatten the horizon while illuminated slopes and curved structures catch the last light.
- Along the Rocky Shore - Warm silhouettes give way to blue coves, a distant marker, and framed views across the water.
- Snow Lines at Last Light - The sequence alternates close ridgelines with broad summit views before closing on a thin orange afterglow.
- Crater to Fire - The sequence crosses from distant steam and dry grass to an active orange vent after dark.
- Black Rock and Palm Wind - The view alternates between close wave impact, low coastal vegetation, palm groves, and a wide horizon.
- Sunset Over Dark Rock - The sequence begins at the feet, rises to the horizon, and returns to water held inside black rock.
- Mountains Across Blue Water - Repeated horizons build a passage from open deck views to quiet shorelines and doubled mountain silhouettes.
- Sunset Along the Seawall - Horizontal water and sky carry changing bands of green, gold, pink, and blue through the short sequence.
- Shore Beneath the Ridge - Two wide views balance the fixed mass of land against small bodies at the moving waterline.
- River Through Ruins - A single vertical landscape balances moving water, green islands, and weathered masonry.
- Falls, Ferns, and Old Trunks - Wide views of falling water alternate with close studies of bark, roots, ferns, and forest floor.
