City Pier on Anna Maria Island, Long Exposure (2014)

This long exposure photograph captures the City Pier on Anna Maria Island, with a wooden pier extending over calm water toward a waterfront building. Dark storm clouds create a moody atmosphere, contrasting with the muted tones of the water. The engraved planks add texture and detail, while the 15‑second exposure softens the water and enhances the dramatic coastal setting. Shot on a Nikon D610 with an 18–35mm lens at 35mm, ƒ/18, ISO 100.
