At the jagged edge of the continent, the Golden Gate emerges as a distant, iron thread against the sheer scale of the Pacific. These images capture the silence of the Marin Headlands, where rusted history and salt-stained cliffs stand watch over the shifting tides. Between the heavy weight of stone portals and the airy flight of sails, a quiet tension exists between the city’s pulse and the ocean’s rhythm. This is a study of the coast’s rugged periphery—a place where the horizon feels infinite and the land feels ancient. It is a glimpse of San Francisco from the outside looking in, defined by spray, stone, and steel.

Exploring the liminal space where the Pacific Ocean meets the Marin Headlands, this series documents the shifting boundary of Rodeo Beach. From the suspended anticipation of surfers in the swell to the historic red-roofed barracks of Fort Cronkhite standing against the hills, the images capture the quiet tension and enduring transition between wild waters, rugged earth, and human history.
