John Scala Photography Award winning photographic artist. Capturing the beauty of Long Island. 100% of profits go to Oceana.org. In the end my hard work paid off.

Oceana is a non-profit dedicated to cleaning and protecting our oceans.
.org Like most people, I first started taking photos after my first child was born. In the early days I was just taking snapshots of the cute moments of childhood. After a while, I started becoming fascinated with the difference in how the human eye sees versus how the camera sees. I started attending photo w

orkshops, reading books and really trying to become a better photographer. In 2019 I was awarded Image of the Year by the NCCC and made the PFLI ALL-STAR TEAM. I’m also a member of the Professional Photographers of America. I love how a photograph freezes a moment in time. When I look at my photos, I can remember where I was, what I felt when I was taking the photo. I hope you enjoy my gallery. It’s only a fraction of the images I have. If you are looking for something specific, send me a message, I probably have what you're looking for.

REFLECTION The moon is gone, but its presence refuses to leave.

What remains is the echo of light.

A quiet path on the water.

A memory that remembers how to shine.

This reflection feels deliberate, almost restrained.

It does not ask for attention.
It waits.

The darkness around it is not empty.
It is purposeful.

It gives the light somewhere to exist.

By removing the moon, the image becomes less about a celestial object and more about experience.

About what lingers after something meaningful has passed.

About how impact does not need visibility.

The water carries the story now.

Each ripple holds a fragment of what once was.

And together, they form something more intimate than the source itself.



A single large piece of art works the same way.

One large piece creates a moment.

It establishes a rhythm for the entire space.

It tells the eye where to rest and the mind where to slow down.

Multiple pieces often compete.
They divide attention and clash.

They fragment the emotional experience.

One large work, placed with intention, does the opposite.

It anchors the room.
It sets the tone.

It allows the viewer to step into a feeling rather than skim across many ideas.

Just like this reflection, it does not need explanation.

It simply needs space to breathe.

And when it has that space, it speaks louder than a wall full of noise.

🌙 Tonight, take a moment to pause with me by the quiet waters of Long Island.

The gentle flight of a bird and its reflection on still water remind us of the peace found in simple moments.

This scene captures the calm that comes with nightfall—when the world slows and we can reflect on our connection to nature.

Watching a bird glide above water, perfectly mirrored below, invites us to consider our own balance and harmony with the environment.

Through these images, I hope you find a bit of stillness in your day and appreciate the serene beauty that often goes unnoticed around us.

Our natural world offers quiet strength and grace if we just stop to see it.

Thank you for joining me in this moment of reflection.

Remember, supporting ocean conservation helps preserve these peaceful places for generations to come. 🌊🕊️ https://api.alkai.ai/yy3mk0?asrc=fbp

Winter invites calm and reflection — the perfect time to bring the ocean's quiet strength into your home.

This monochrome photograph captures a surfer at the water's edge, surrounded by the raw power of waves.

The contrast of light and dark invites you to pause and remember your own moments of solitude and adventure.

Black and white art like this offers an elegant, timeless touch to any room, ideal as a gift to inspire calm and connection to nature during the colder months. Beyond its beauty, each purchase supports ocean conservation through donations to Oceana.

Celebrate the ocean’s endless energy and thoughtful stillness this winter.

Let this piece be a conversation starter and a reminder of nature’s powerful presence in your space.
