Yellow Board by the Tower

Small shifts in distance and angle turn a functional beach structure into a measured coastal study.

Four frames circle the same lifeguard tower and yellow paddleboard, moving from a palm-framed distance shot to close views of a lifeguard stretching.

The peaked mountain across the water and the tower's white structure stay constant while the camera's position and crop shift slightly each time.

  • Figures, Gates, and Open Sky - The view moves from a courthouse facade to a backlit abstract figure and finally toward a gate opening into grass.
  • Rows Beneath Autumn Leaves - The project contrasts vegetation and seasonal color with a metal gate, low walls, grave markers, and the repeated geometry of a landscaped burial ground.
  • Between the Carved Towers - The gateway remains fixed while the sequence shows visitors below it, one person before the steps, two front-facing stances, extended arms, and a final rear view.
  • Blur, Stone Forms, Open Water - The edit contrasts densely layered human figures with increasingly spacious views of dark structures, foliage, water, exposed rock, and one small primate.
  • Curves, Canopy, Cloud - A study of changing scale in which pale architectural curves, a single person, gray sky, forested ridges, and a broad mountain give way to blurred vegetation.
  • Loosies - Eight frames move from carved and cast figures to living passersby and back to pure light: a relief figure in shadow, a tilted plaza, silhouetted towers before a low sun, a portrait before a pale colonnade, carved...
  • Night Street Photos - A short sequence that opens with two night street scenes, a building of stacked lanterns and signs and a lantern-lit dining alley, then moves to a graffiti-covered wall and ends on a close view of a neon drawing.
  • Night Walk Near Shibuya - A night sequence moving from a lit street corner up an elevated walkway's stacked signage, into blurred and overpass views of the street, then upward to clouds, a high-rise, and a closing neon tiger.
