Two Palettes by the Marina

Two subjects return under different palettes, revealing changes in water, wood, petals, and sky.

A wooden runabout at a marina dock and clusters of red blossoms each appear twice, once in warm sunset tones and again in cooler light.

The pairing tracks the same two subjects, boats moored at golden hour and dense red flowers, reshot under a brighter, cooler color balance.

Light, Color & Surface

  • Intervals of Visibility - Partial visibility connects isolated forms, softened architecture, layered color, and subjects defined by concentrated light.
  • Same Shots, Warm and Cool - A repetition study: the same dockside boat, the same portrait, and the same riverside shrub each appear twice, rendered once in saturated warm tones and once in cooler, more neutral color.
  • Double Exposure in Black and White - A sequence of six overlapping black-and-white exposures that layer trees, buildings, glowing cursive text, light trails, and carved stone into single frames.
  • Double Exposure B&W (II) - Layered exposures where two scenes coexist in one frame, moving from painted surfaces to sky, architecture, water, and stone.
  • Double Exposure B&W III - Each frame stacks two visible scenes: hard-edged objects and lettered signs on one layer, plants or patterned surfaces on the other, so that neither layer fully covers the other.
  • Sun Blade, Blue Cross, Red Water - Three visually disparate frames - a sunlit portrait, a blue-lit sanctuary interior, and an overhead view of tinted water - grouped for their shared contrast of sharply divided light and color rather than any confirmed...
  • Through the Pane - A walk through an interior where lit tubing, striped color, warm stone, and a translucent red object are bracketed by two neon works seen through reflective glass.
  • Numbered Mosaic Pillars in a Tiled Passage - A photographic inventory of round, tiled pillars, each carrying one mosaic numeral in a checkered band, arranged as a descending count that skips two digits.

A dark red wooden runabout named Old and in the Way is moored at a dock in warm sunset light, with sailboats and cabin cruisers moored beyond.
Attention rests on white boats and a polished wooden runabout moored along a marina in warm evening light.
Dense clusters of small red blossoms crowd branching stems against a pale sky, with an orange-toned building visible at the upper edge.
Attention rests on a dense spray of bright red blossoms rising against pale sky and a distant building.
The same wooden runabout and marina appear again under cooler, brighter light, with more boats and a taller sailboat mast visible.
Attention rests on the marina and wooden runabout seen again with cooler water and a brighter sky.
A denser mass of red blossoms fills the frame against a broad pale sky, rendered in cooler, brighter color than the earlier view.
Attention rests on clusters of red blossoms and green leaves rendered in a pale high-key palette.
