Montauk holds a special place in my heart. Every summer my family and I travel to Montauk, NY, a popular surfing and fishing town located at the very end of Long Island’s south fork. We stay in a small beach cottage, in an area called Ditch Plains. It’s a three minute walk to the beach, where our summers are filled with surfing, bike riding, barbecues, family gatherings, and our pet dogs. These photos are from an evening on the beach, during 4th of July 2020. It was one of the first times I experimented with the manipulation of light by using long exposures.
