After Sunset

The Skate Park has one of the most breath taking views in the city and the Sunsets are just incredible.

Getting out of the house is the hardest part. Once the skaters get to the skate park and the creative juices start flowing they do whatever comes to mind. Most of the time they come with specific tricks in mind to practice and master. This mastery of technique makes skating what it is.

The Rail is a constant source of entertainment for the skaters.

Fireworks Display

New Years Fireworks displays are one of the most beautiful opportunities of taking photos. Fireworks are an art form themselves and what better way of celebrating another artists work than to immortalize it in a photo.

The display of light and shadows is what catches my eye. Everything is seen in shade and full light.

Quinton

A Spider moved in. He’s a good tenant. He cleans, he catches intruders, and he makes sure the intruders don’t get very far.

His name is Quinton.

Laguna Light Source is a collection of landscapes and people from around the city. Day and night, the skaters are in focus and blurred in motion. These are more than just photos, they are a timestamp that can be put on a wall. The city has been flourishing through time and the historical landmarks are still prominent, despite erosion the expansion is a prosperous and flourishing city that the inhabitants can live in.

   The Skate Park at different times of day is the place for people to be. Different times are like different places that are one of a kind. Time is a form of movement that cannot be controlled, and you must meet it.

   Meeting time is a lot like meeting a person. Time will be different every time you meet.  These images are the same places, time changed them, and you can see the difference. In these landscapes, I introduce Cole Park to you.

   The life of Cole Park goes beyond the park on the bayfront, it is a part of people’s lives. It enters their conversations and is where they plan to be together. When that happens, time meets them there, and even though time is just an idea of 'when' time is there with us. The moment when they are there together is an individual bubble of reality.

   There is an old expression my father would tell me because I would ask how something was happening anywhere else, "If a tree falls in the woods and no one is around to hear it does it still make a sound?" People at the park do so many things together and have

memories to talk about. These images symbolize some of those times and are more than just a story told to friends, they symbolize progress and activity with our constant companion.

            Time.

       I am excited to show you the different things time has shown me.
