Montauk Surf

Beyond the Miles: Montauk Surf in Black & White

“Beyond the Miles” is a visual meditation on motion, solitude, and resilience—captured in the raw beauty of Montauk’s surf. Shot entirely in black and white, this collection strips away the distraction of color to reveal texture, form, and emotional tone. Each frame is a moment suspended between the pull of the tide and the stillness of the shore—a study in contrasts and a tribute to the quiet power of nature.

Photographed through a runner’s lens, this work draws parallels between the endless rhythm of the ocean and the internal pace of endurance. “Beyond the Miles” invites viewers to slow down, breathe in the salt air, and experience the serenity and strength found in the in-between spaces.
