FEATURED EXAMPLE
“FORGET”
an Elegant wave in the mid-morning light.
Long Island, NY.
Many of my images are made during the hour around sunrise or sunset, when the light is rich with color and contrast—especially when shooting east into the rising sun or west into the setting one. On the right day, when the wind and waves cooperate, a morning session can stretch well beyond the early hour. Under a clear sky, the water begins to glow—blues, greens, and even golden hues emerge as sunlight cuts through the thinner edges of a wave and bounces off its denser sections.
For this image, I used a neutral density (ND) filter to manage the strong sunlight and extend my shutter speed. The result is a soft, painterly effect that captures not just the form, but the feeling of the wave—the way light flickers across its surface as it rises and surges toward shore.

WHAT PEOPLE SAY
Geoffrey Bailey
“I have been an admirer of this photographer's photos for a long time. He captures nature's moments with a remarkable creativity.”
Thilondy
“I am a lover of nature and all things outdoors and a huge fan of Alex’s photography. His photographs help me live in the waves and on the beach while I’m strapped to a chair, being a good little worker bee. I asked Alex to pick the frame and I feel like he made a great choice. The shipping was fast and my framed photo was delivered without a scratch. I am super happy with my purchase!”
Sachin V.
“Alex is a real gem. I had the pleasure of walking into his gallery and spent some time talking to him about his work and his story. It’s rare and delightful to come across individuals like him- humble, sincere and deeply genuine- and you can clearly see how these qualities translate into his art as well. So glad to have stopped by.”
