Hi everyone. So glad to be posting on bluesky. I'm a photographer shooting all genres, abstract to street. Ran ilovephotography*com from 1999 to 2015. I only post my own images. No AI. If you're passionate about photography, I'd be happy to follow you.

Color photograph: A cyclist wearing a pink jersey and white helmet rides past a turquoise and green mural at a beach casino. Motion blur from panning camera movement renders the rider and bicycle as streaks of color against the background.
A densely layered sea grape shrub photographed in high-contrast sunlight at a Florida beach. The large, round leaves display a vivid deep purple, magenta, red, orange, and green, with bright yellow-green veins tracing across each surface. Fallen dried leaves and rocky ground are visible below. The strong sunlight creates blown-out white highlights on several leaves, intensifying the effect.
Color photograph: Two American flags fly from the railing of a wooden fishing pier on Father's Day, the ocean stretching out behind them. Their bold red and white stripes echo the repeating lines of the wooden boards and fence rails all around them. Bright sunlight throws long, crisscrossing shadows across the worn deck, turning the walkway into a pattern of light and dark. A man and a child head away from the camera toward the far end of the pier, carrying fishing rods, while other fishermen can be seen gathered in the distance under a covered shelter.
Color photograph: A green iguana perches near the top of a spiky palm plant, partially camouflaged among the sharp, narrow leaves. The iguana's head and upper body are visible on the right side, with its distinctive teal eye and scaly gray-green skin contrasting against the bright green foliage. The background is white from heavy backlight.
Color photograph of a person in a tank top and shorts, seen in near-silhouette against backlit rippling water. Massive dark pier pilings frame the scene vertically, with a starburst of sunlight flaring between two of them on the left. The figure looks downward, head bowed, surrounded by reflections.
Black and white photograph of a lone stand-up paddleboarder silhouetted against a brightly backlit ocean surface, paddle in hand, standing amid low breaking waves. The backlit water stretches in rippling bands of light and shadow from foreground to horizon, with a dark overcast sky above.
Distant silhouettes of several people swimming and wading in a calm sea, one with an arm raised mid-throw holding a ball, set against a vast pale blue-green sky and water with the horizon line near the center of the frame.
Silhouettes of construction cranes and palm trees set against a vivid golden sunset, with dark storm clouds rolling in across the sky.
Color photograph: A potted plant with long, arching stems covered in small periwinkle-blue flowers and rounded green leaves, spilling over the sides of a whitish/pink ceramic pot. Shot in soft overcast light on a backyard patio, with green foliage blurred in the background.
Black and white photograph of a male airport worker in a reflective safety vest and baseball cap, leaning against a wall and talking on a phone. Behind him is a large digital display showing a stylized illustration of the New York City skyline at night, including the Statue of Liberty and recognizable skyscrapers. In the upper right corner of the display, a Delta Air Lines message reads "Thank You for Flying With Us." Silver crowd-control stanchions with retractable belts stand in the foreground. The setting is LaGuardia airport, usa.
Color photography: A wet stone pathway leads through the entrance of a dog park at sunset, flanked by well-cared for croton plants and framed by the arching trunks and canopy of two large trees. Beyond the path, palm trees and distant foliage are silhouetted against an evening sky of deep orange, gold, and purple, with clouds lit from below by the setting sun.
A minimalist color seascape photograph showing a vast overcast sky in muted silver-gray tones above a very calm ocean. A faint horizontal streak of warm golden-white light catches the water near the horizon, which sits low in the lower quarter of the frame. The overall palette is cool and monochromatic, with the single warm light reflection serving as the sole focal point.
A white sailboat with a yellow sail cover sits moored on the glassy, mirror-calm waters of Shelburne Bay, Vermont, its mast and hull reflected in the still blue water, with a low tree-lined shoreline and soft cloudy sky in the distance.
A black and white photograph of a calm, shallow pond. Near the center of the frame, a curved and angular arrangement of fallen branches floats on the reflective surface, their dark forms mirrored in the water below. Scattered throughout the background and foreground, thin reeds and young aquatic plants emerge from the water, each casting a its reflection. The overall mood is quiet and contemplative, with the still water creating a backdrop against the dark organic shapes.
Color photograph: A somewhat moody sunrise viewed from the shoreline. The sun glows behind a bank of heavy clouds near the center of the frame, sending rays of light fanning outward and reflecting in a bright column across the dark, choppy water. A wave curls in the middle distance while the foreground shows shallow surf washing over wet sand. The overall palette is cool silver and slate grey, with patches of blue sky visible between the clouds.
A large tree in full bloom with pink and purple blossoms fills the frame, its dark trunk silhouetted against a soft-focus park road and wooden split-rail fence in the background. Green grass lines the foreground. The overcast light gives the scene a quiet quality.
Black and white photograph of a low-key scene of a highway at night as it would look riding home late.
Slightly high-key color photograph: A lush pothos in a hanging pot, long leafy vines draping all the way down past a sun hat on a white chair.
Color photograph: A sailboat in silhouette moves across the ocean near the horizon during a golden sunset. The low sun sits just above a band of clouds, casting a bright reflection across rippling water. Several lens flares appear in the sky above the boat.
Color photograph of a few sailboats with colorful backlit sails due to a setting sun behind them.
Color photograph of a vivid red and orange sunset glowing above a dark ocean horizon, with streaked clouds filling the sky and a few small birds silhouetted against the light.
Color photograph of a moody ocean shore scene with dark clouds and morning sun rays peaking through on the left side.
Close-up color photograph of a green chrysalis hanging vertically against a dark background. Small water droplets cover the surface, and a thin gold band wraps around the upper section. The shallow focus and low light give the image a quiet, intimate feel.
View from an airplane window showing towering white and blue-gray storm clouds. A bright opening in the clouds reveals sunlight reflecting off water far below, creating a layered scene of clouds, light, and atmosphere.
Color photograph of a sunset with mostly silver or grey tones (with a thin middle strip of yellow/orange) reflected on a nearly calm lake.
A tall, slender pine tree stands alone in the foreground against a cloudy sky, its sparse canopy of long needles reaching asymmetrically upward and outward. Several lower branches are bare and broken, evidence of recent storm damage, while the surviving upper branches spread wide as if finding new equilibrium. A calm lake and lush treeline reflect in the still water behind it.
Color closeup photograph of a reflection in a glass tumbler, which ends up looking like an abstract rendition of a sunrise or sunset scene at the beach, with a look as if it was viewed through a prism.
Color photograph of a slightly overexposed hibiscus shrub shot through my raindrop-speckled car window during a brief sun shower in South Florida.
A glowing orange sunrise hangs low over a foggy road, with dark tree silhouettes framing both sides. A lone car with headlights on drives through the mist, while the road curves gently into the hazy distance.
Black and white photograph of a service entrance to a building, showing a black metal fence/gate, and various 4-sided shapes throughout the scene.
Silhouetted against a bright but fading sky, a boy and girl walk side by side along a ridge lined with dense bushes. Their small dark outlines stand in contrast to the open expanse above, suggesting a quiet moment at sunset.
Color photograph of thin, intersecting tree branches with clusters of small green buds and a few scattered green leaves against a blue sky; a central branch is partially in focus while the foreground and background branches are blurred due to shallow depth of field.
Black and white photograph of a girl on a landline phone sitting at a table with a cat in front of her patiently listening and waiting for her to finish the call.
Color photograph of of a sunrise/sunset over a scenic lake where the sun rays are breaking through a gap in heavy clouds.
Black and white photograph of many black birds perched on crisscrossing telephone/power lines, with a blown out sky in the background.
Color photograph of a multitude of birds resting on crisscrossing powerlines over a busy intersection.
Color photograph of a lake scene a little while after the sun sets in the horizon.
Photograph of a palm tree at sunset. Camera motion and a slow shutter speed serve to blur elements in the image, causing a stormy effect.
A palm tree rendered in swirling motion blur created by intentional camera movement, its fronds bending into abstract, wave-like patterns against a pale sky. Warm light streaks across the bottom of the frame. Shot on a Nikon Zf with a 135mm lens at f/10, 1/15 sec.
A black-and-white photograph of a hospital room. A wheeled over-bed table sits in the center with cups, bottles, and small containers on top. Strong sunlight passes through window blinds, creating a sharp triangular patch of striped light on the wall. The objects on the table cast long shadows into the lit area. Part of a hospital bed is visible on the right side of the frame.
