• A landscape (layout) photo of a wall of an abandoned building in Panama City, Panama. Three boarded up doorways on the second story each have their own wrought iron balcony. Underneath the three upper doors are three more doors on the ground floor. Teal colored stonework frames each of these doors on both sides and a keystone arch overhead. The ground level doors have wrought iron fences barring access. Paint on the beige-colored stucco wall cracks, flakes, and peals with age. The setting sun casts golden light on the upper 2/3s of the image, while the lower 1/3 is in a softer golden shadow.

    Wrought Iron Twilight

    $822.00 – $2,832.00
    Walking Panama City (Panama) one evening as the sun set, I came across this abandoned building just at golden hour, as the sun slipped below the horizon.  The combination of wrought iron railings and teal-colored tile arches formed an unusual color palette on the facade, with the decaying building behind it.  Shot while we were cruising Central America in our sailboat 2000-2001.

  • This vertical photograph, taken in the Guna Yala region of Panama shows, multiple bands of sand, water, and sky: from light beige of the sandy beach at the bottom, to a darker beige where water recedes back into the ocean, to a light teal of the waves as they first make contact with the sandy beach, to a dark teal 30-feet away, to a dark blue on the ocean’s horizon, to a sky blue with a few white puffy clouds above the horizon. On the right side of the image, a mile or more away, we see two tiny islands just above the horizon line.

    $822.00 – $2,832.00
    The San Blas Archipelago, off the northeastern coast of Panama, is home to the Kuna Yala—an indigenous people that inhabit its 365 coastal islands.  We sailed the archipelago for a month anchoring at various islands, snorkeling, and exploring.  I love this shot because of nature's tropical gradients from white sand to sky blue.  Taken while we were cruising Central America in our sailboat 2000-2001.

  • Deep blue sky frames the upper half of this horizontal landscape photo of The Baths in the British Virgin Islands. White cumulus clouds arc from the upper left, down across the horizon, and up again to the right. Beige sand fills the lower third of the image, while large boulders cascade from the left into the center. Crystal clear waters lap against the boulders and ripple out into the turquoise waters of Devil’s Bay. Families swim in the shallow waters on the right side of the photo. Ten or more sailboats drift at anchor on the horizon, several hundred feet in the distance.

  • This landscape photo, from the Boca del Toro region of Panama, shows a wooden pier jutting out from the right side of the image. The pier’s walkway is exactly on the horizon line. At the end of the pier, almost on the left side of the image, we see three separate thatched roofs held up by thin log supports. A soft golden light from the setting sun highlight the thin edge of the pier and thatched roofs facing the camera. The water, a muddy blue-teal pastel, is calm except for long ripples that turn the reflected roofs into dark brown, striated streaks on the surface. A bright blue sky provides a colorful contrast to the bright golden thatched roofs.

    $822.00 – $2,832.00
    The cabana on this pier takes on a golden glow in the setting sun near Bocas del Toro, Panama.  We had no idea that we would never again return: The September 11 terrorist attacks changed the world.  Image taken while cruising Central America in our Hallberg-Rassy HR 42 sailboat 'Andante,' in 2001.

  • This landscape photo, from the Guna Yala region of Panama, is taken from the perspective of standing on an island beach. In the lower 1/5 of the image we see a small flat wave receding from a dark mauve colored sand. The edge of the water ripples and foams as it pulls away from the beach. Above the receding wave, up to the horizon line in the middle of the photo, various shades of teal-colored water wrinkle from a soft breeze. In the middle of the photo, about 150-feet away, we see a ketch at anchor, its bow facing left into the wind. The setting sun, which is off camera to the right, illuminates the port side of the yacht in a soft golden light. Directly behind the sailboat, and perhaps another 100-feet distant, a small island with dark palm trees provides a backdrop to the bow, stern, and top of the glowing sailboat. A blue sky peeks through many clouds in the top half of the image. Clouds on the right side of the photo are also illuminated by the setting sun, which accents the blue sky with shades of gold, yellow, gray, and lavender.

  • orizontal photo of the beach in the town of Capesterre on the island of Marie-Galante in the Caribbean. A strip of white sand, with shadowed splashes from the overhead palms, anchors the lower fifth of the image. Beyond the sand beach we see the light-turquoise Caribbean Sea—with a narrow strip of dark blue on the horizon where the waves break over distant coral reefs. From the beach, the camera looks upward following tall, skinny, wind-swept palms that lean in from both edges of the photo against a pure blue, cloudless sky in the upper two-thirds of the image. Rounded circles of palm fronds at the top of each palm tree hover in the sky like small bursts of green fireworks in the upper third of the image.
