    There’s a quiet, meditative quality that imbues your photographs.
    I think it’s interesting that you’re working similar but different projects in Morro Bay and the Outer Banks. And then toss in your LA freeways…
    Always enjoy your videos. Thanks for sharing them.

    off season OBX is so much more the vibe then peak summer. I love it there in Fall or spring. You really feel the culture, history and get the low down from the locals.

    Absolutely stunning work, my goodness. Really really enjoyed this piece. Thank you for sharing!

    Love all of your work but I really love this project of yours in the Outer Banks. I’ve been living on the NC Coast(Holden Beach) with my wife for 18 months now and I’ve been trying my best to put together a body of work to document the seascape/architecture here. We’re moving back home in a year so I’m hoping to have it finished by then.🤞The light out here is just surreal! Cheers Willem!

    Your thoughts about the two pool by the shore photos resonates. In many situations where there are bright, interesting colors in the scene I’ve found bright, clear sky early to mid-afternoon light makes for the most engaging photos, just like this one. Especially in early spring or late fall when the low sun really brings out the contrast in the smallest shadows. This whole series is beautiful. 🙏✌️

    I really love how your photography has been evolving over the years. I can't wait for people finally appearing as dominant elements in your beatyfully lit compositions.

    Beautiful! Just f’in beautiful!! Every time I see one of your OBX vids, my heart longs to be back down there, rather than being here in Northern Virginia. Thankfully, I’m headed back down to Nags Head next week, and I ALWAYS have stayed at the Sea Foam (top floor facing the ocean) because I’m thats just my thing, unless I’m hanging for a night or or more on Ocracoke. I’m particularly excited about this coming trip because it’ll be the first time shooting film there, so I’ve got a lot of spots I want to revisit to capture with my recently acquired Contax G2. BTW, love all the shots in your vid. That one of the two houses on the waterline in Rodanthe is particularly awesome, especially since the one on the left has the sign stating ‘Front Row Seat’! Doesn’t get much more front row than that scene!

    I’m just about an hour north of there. My parents had a place in Kill Devil Hills back in the 80s. My plan is to move there permanently in the next 5 years.
    It’s definitely a different place than it was 40 years ago, but it still has a special place in my heart.

  • @1958wstewart

    Such a beautiful video. Your photos and the vibe of the video brought back memories of family vacations on the Outerbanks in the 1960’s. We would stay in quaint little motorcourt motels nestled in the dunes Buxton. Sure looks different now shaped by decades of powerful storms. Thanks for the memories.

    im from Greensboro, NC and my folks retired to Colington Island, near the Wright Brother's monument during the pandemic. They have some contacts that retired there, boat builders and commercial fishermen. I'm so lucky I get to visit the OBX during all seasons, I've been hunting in the sound, fished underneath the bridges for sheephead (DELICIOUS!), and I've heard the military bombing in Dare county (there's a bomb range there), It's an incredible place, expensive, but incredible. There's a massive hotrod car show that comes to Kill Devil Hills annually and you see amazing rides everywhere. And all the old timers that live there say Andy Griffith was an asshole!

    Hi Willem, if you don't know his work, check out John Divola's 'Zuma' series from 1977-78. Derelict buildings by the sea, shot with flash. Incredible. I would guess right up your street.

    Such a visually striking location. Were those houses purposefully built in the ocean, or is it just due to changing tide/sea level that they find themselves there? - it's kind of crazy to me. Maintenance would be a nightmare. They certainly make for beautiful photographs though.

    If you fly in through RDU and are felling a burger, Char-grill on Hillsborough St has been a staple since 1959.
    Sadly it’s getting torn down in the eventual future for a new development 😢

    @spencersanderson4590 Před 4 měsíci

    I notice you sometimes compose with lines going directly Into the corner of the frame. Is that intentional? I usually go for that in my work and other elements like it but I’ve heard some people discourage details like that which make it look like the photo was too thought out. Guess it’s different kinds of photography idk
