Checkerboards
I love the design and execution of these handmade boards that live outdoors for the public to enjoy. They’re not more than a year old, but time and the elements have already aged them well.

Pampas Grass
This grass is simply phenomenal—angora fireworks atop a lithe and lanky pedicel. They ruffle the Jersey shore like a jungle of preposterously spindly cotton swabs with Harpo Marx hair. Symphonic, undulant, sibilant. Tranquility incarnate.

Bubbler
What a great name for a water fountain (aka “drinking fountain”). This one is a park bubbler. I love its shapes and the way the light is reflected because of them. The color struck me first, then the machinery. A perfect combination of style and function.

Binocular Tower Viewer
Who knew the name? It’s the thing you look through in parks, etc., to see into the distance. Looks like a robot. It’s amazingly photogenic in and of itself.

Moldering Autumn
As the days turn chillier and the sun rises later and dips earlier than we’re used to, the flora, too, gets ready for the winter to come. It takes on a different, often less obviously vibrant, persona. Flowers and plants exude a Miss Havisham quality, no less fascinating to observe than their summer cousins in their comparatively garish costumes. The lens seems equally pleased with both.
