Grace in the Surf: A White Egret on the Tel Aviv Shore

Grace in the Surf: A White Egret on the Tel Aviv Shore

Salt water broke over the low rock on the Tel Aviv shore, and the white egret kept working the edge as if the line between beach and sea was negotiable. Each wave came in with more force than the bird seemed built to answer. Foam climbed the stone, s...

Egyptian Goose Goslings on the Canal Bank

Egyptian Goose Goslings on the Canal Bank

Rock Pigeons Flying Over Amsterdam Canal Water

Rock Pigeons Flying Over Amsterdam Canal Water

The canal water was already moving before the bird crossed it. Small dark ridges ran across the surface, not high enough to become waves, but enough to keep the background restless. Into that moving blue, a rock pigeon came low and fast, holding its ...

Fishing Boat in Sunset Light off Zandvoort

Fishing Boat in Sunset Light off Zandvoort

The sun hangs over the North Sea as a white disc inside the orange sky. Below it, the reflection breaks into a narrow path, bright near the horizon and rougher where the water begins to move. The fishing boat crosses that light as a dark shape, low i...
