Fine Art – Winter from Above

Captured on the border of New Jersey and Pennsylvania, this snow-covered farm stands out for its vividly red roof—a lone accent in a quiet, white landscape. Just moments before the shutter clicked, a yellow Piper Cub passed overhead. Though that frame was missed, this image remains a serene and satisfying result of the pursuit.

Seeing birds from above is a rare pleasure—especially when it’s a perfectly organized flock of Canadian Geese in motion. Captured over a snow-blanketed golf course in Westchester, this moment reveals the grace and structure of flight, mirroring the order and rhythm I seek from above.

A minimalist composition: a single line of trees casting long shadows on a frozen field as the winter sun sets low on the horizon. Simple, elegant, and quietly powerful.

This structured winter landscape captures a snow-covered tree nursery in New Jersey. To the right, rows of tiny dots reveal themselves—Christmas trees at various stages of growth, creating a pattern that’s only visible from this height.

Shot over Bensonhurst—a residential pocket of Brooklyn—this image captures the tight rhythm of single-family homes, a signature of the area. The elevated D subway line cuts a clear diagonal, linking the 71st and 79th Street stations, anchoring the quiet geometry of the neighborhood below.

A dusting of fresh snow blankets a solar panel field near Princeton, New Jersey. A reminder of nature’s brief interruptions—within a day, the snow will melt and the panels will resume their silent harvesting of sunlight.

From above, this sprawling forest appears untouched—bare trees packed tightly across hundreds of snow-covered acres. Without shadows or human traces, the landscape feels ancient, hidden, and deeply still.

Discovered in southern Pennsylvania during a westbound flight, this small, symmetrical grove stood out in the white landscape. The beauty of the scene lingered long after departure—another fleeting moment captured before the next mission called.

Following a string of 2016 snowstorms, many rural roads remained buried for days. Here, one such road simply disappears under a blanket of snow—its vanishing point captured from above, where order meets winter’s quiet resistance.

A minimalist image of a lone hunting tower, surrounded by snow in rural New Jersey. Stark, silent, and contemplative.

One of the few images in the series where the color of winter light is preserved—subtle pinks and blues emerge as the sun drops low. The frozen surface becomes painterly, reflecting the delicate transitions of dusk.

A low-slung bridge separates the frozen halves of Croton Falls Reservoir, about 40 miles north of Manhattan. It divides more than water—it breaks the scene into two mirrored textures, joined only by the crossing line.
