Selected Photographs

Performers onstage beneath a cloud of powder in a black-and-white photograph. Red flags hang above empty queue rails divided by sunlight and shadow.
A lone figure on a curving road beside a layered rock cliff.
A person holds a vivid red umbrella while facing blue water. Pedestrians cast long shadows on a curving street in a black-and-white view from above.
A concrete tower on a hazy lakeshore, framed by wildflowers. A figure walks through a green-lit passage beneath dark concrete ramps.
Light and shadow on a grid of metal panels beside a glass stairwell. A lone waterbird floats beneath a bank of white clouds.
