Through the viewfinder

Photography

Photography is the hobby I unwind with — the frames I keep while I learn to see, shot on a Nikon Z6III with Nikkor and Tamron glass.

Home & Studio Portraits

Portraits made indoors, where the light is shaped rather than found.

Urban Portraits

People photographed against pavement, signage, and the built city.

Portraits in Nature

A person in open country, where the landscape sets the mood.

Coast & Sea

Sea stacks, surf on basalt, and the sun meeting the ocean horizon.

Inland Landscapes

Terrain away from the coast — peaks, forest, caldera lakes, and gorge overlooks.

Architecture & Structures

Built form for its own sake — bridge piers, stone rotundas, geometry, and light.

Night & Light Trails

After the sun goes down: artificial light, long exposures, and motion drawn out.

Aviation

Machines in the air, caught against smoke and sky.

Birds & Wildlife

An emerging series — animals on their own terms, at a respectful distance.

A weekend hobby, learned from zero. The field manual tracks what I’m figuring out — exposure, light, and the gear above.
