From a past carrying aircraft to the flight deck of the USS Midway, this carrier elevator is now a lunch spot.

Really Good Parking Garage
Wane sunlight paints a lovely set of parallel and intersecting lines from the facade of this really photogenic parking garage in Mechelen, Belgium.
Race-Prepped Porsche
The little details—the hood latches, the roll cage, the vents through the plexi windows—are what made this particular vehicle stand out in the paddock. The red paint doesn’t hurt, either.
Miata Parade
NA Miatas returning to the paddock after lapping Lime Rock Park make for quite a 1990s throwback parade.
The Comparison Test Cover Shot
When my mom, brother, and I assembled our sports cars for a track day at Lime Rock Park, I knew it was a rare opportunity to create an array of vehicles like those that graced the covers of Car and Driver or Popular Mechanics when a major comparison test was the focus of the issue.
Miata Cornering
When a whole image is motion blue but a single happy Miata face, I think the sensation of speed is being pretty well-captured.
Miatas with Big Wings
MiataCon brought an array of modified-beyond-recognition Miatas to Lime Rock Park—with many of them sporting monster wings.
The 10-year-old in me has to admit that they look neat.
Of course, their goals vis-à-vis downforce weren’t always accomplished. (Believe it or not, the blue Miata managed to avoid colliding with the McDonald’s-colored Miata.)
Race Track Landscape
Lime Rock Park is a classic racing circuit among the rolling hills of northwestern Connecticut; while each of these components is visually compelling, I’m still working at finding the right way to combine the two different scales into a single image that captures the experience.
Giant Valley Polo Club
At Connecticut’s oldest still-active polo grounds, two cozy teams of amateur polo players clashed on what was once a hay field. With the old barn in the background, the image almost feels like it could be happening at any moment in the past hundred years.
Harvest Miata
Through the warm hues of early-autumn grasses, I guess this Miata just wanted to escape the harvest.
Battleship Miata
Look at the juxtaposition of the very serious battleship-gray paint and tinted headlights with that adorable smiling happy Miata face—it gets me every time.
Long Walk Indomitable
The monolithic shadowed face of Trinity College’s Long Walk is particularly dramatic as morning sunshine bounces from the leaves of the surrounding trees.
(And yes, I’m still six months behind processing pictures. And autumn in New England looks great.)
Porsche 911 Carrera 4S Cabriolet 996
A Porsche 911 hides in an underground garage like the batmobile, its 3.6 L flat six engine sounding even better than Batman’s turbine.
LSC and Hartford
With Hartford’s skyline looking on in the background, the brutalist facade of Trinity College’s LSC matches the carefully graded dirt of its adjacent quad before a thick layer of new sod was applied.
Potomac in Mather Gorge
After the rain had passed over Madeira School, the view of the Potomac running through Mather Gorge opened up between the trees.
