www.jbvoigt.com Flying and photography, both go together so beautifully.

Everything takes on a new perspective... even 10 feet off the ground. As a young boy, I spent hours building and flying model airplanes with my father. Starting at age 11, I cut grass after school so I could afford flying lessons on the weekends. It didn’t take long to realize that I enjoyed the view OUTSIDE the aircraft more than the flying. That’s when the photography bug hit me. Fast forward 40 years, combine a great drone and sophisticated camera... and you get a 400 foot tall mobile tripod! All of my images are shot from the vantage point of the drone. I’m an FAA Commercial rated drone pilot. My previous experience as a manned pilot lends itself well to this discipline. I’m a former Naval Officer. After graduating from Annapolis in 1982 I served the nation for 8 years. 5 of those years were spent at sea; the remainder teaching at the Naval Academy and Officer Candidate School in Newport, RI. My aerial images are all about perspective. Common landmarks and cityscapes become uncommon from the air. Most of the images are full of bright natural colors. I’m a sucker for sunrises and sunsets, sailboats, water views... and of all things... abandoned to***co barns. There’s a certain pride and peace attached to these old icons. My photography prints are for sale on my website, and I would like to invite you to purchase them at www.jbvoigt.com.

Here’s a fresh view of the Naval Academy from above. I noticed how Farragut Field anchors the right side while sailboats and a single wake give the water a quiet sense of motion, and the campus grid feels orderly without losing that open, airy scale.

I wanted to share Annapolis National Cemetery, one of the fourteen national cemeteries established by President Abraham Lincoln in 1862 and added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1996. The scene holds a quiet order: neat rows of white markers across green lawns, a tall flag steady near the center, and a broad sky shifting from warm apricot to cool violet as light settles along the horizon. Clusters of mature trees break the grid and lend scale, so the composition feels calm and measured rather than busy.

If I could sit down with my parents for one more conversation, there are so many things I’d ask.

I spent the evening at the All Saints’ Day concert at the Naval Academy Chapel yesterday. If you’re going to spend Halloween in a darkened building, you might as well pick one with a magnificent pipe organ.

That organ can get your attention. You hear it, but you also feel it right through the pew. Add the lighting and a little Phantom of the Opera, and you have quite an evening.

Then came the candle-lighting ceremony, remembering our prisoners of war and those still missing in action, and honoring those who never came home. Watching that midshipman in dress whites carry the light through the darkened Chapel stayed with me. Amid all the music and theater, we stopped to remember.

I’ve known this Chapel since my midshipman days, and it still gets me. Glad I went.

I wanted to share this harbor view. Early morning light spills across the Annapolis harbor and turns the water into a broad band of warm gold that cools toward the foreground. Dark docks and grouped yachts set a steady geometry, their reflections stretching into the calm surface, and a solitary sailboat sits just beyond the slips, adding to the stillness and sense of space. The palette is restrained, with amber, deep charcoal and muted indigo, so light and shadow define form more than color. I can see this bringing a calm, elegant focal point to a study, entryway, or living room. See it here: https://www.jbvoigt.com/warehouse/art_print_products/aaeb8efb-595d-4f68-a79f-81a6ac1e207b

A harbor at dusk in bands of gold and amber, sailboats as dark silhouettes with long reflections stretching across calm water. I like that the warm light forms a clear pathway from the horizon to the foreground while thin clouds soften the upper sky into mauve and peach. Two slender transmission towers add a quiet, geometric balance and small buoy markers give gentle texture without breaking the hush. I think it would make a warm, peaceful focal point for a living room, study, or reception area. See it here: https://www.jbvoigt.com/warehouse/art_print_products/default-uzwhhagetd0

There's a jagged triangular tear in rusted corrugated metal, and behind it a lattice of sun-bleached wooden beams with a narrow strip of green beyond. I was drawn to how the light slips through in thin bands and turns the interior into simple geometric patterns. It feels quietly resilient, parts that have weathered a lot but still read clean.
