In "Venice Beach in Black and White," Glen Wilbert photographs a skateboarder carving low through the concrete bowls of the Venice Beach Skatepark, hair streaming and arms out for balance, with palms, onlookers, and long afternoon shadows behind.
The image is rendered in black and white, with strong sunlight raking across the skater and the smooth gray sweeps of the skate bowl. Glen shot from close and slightly low so the rider fills the left of the frame in sharp detail while the curved concrete and the dark shadows of palm trees stretch across the right. The streaked sky and distant crowd set the scene, but the picture stays focused on the skater's crouched, mid-carve stance, the decisive moment of the run.
The Venice Beach Skatepark, on the Los Angeles oceanfront, is one of the most famous skate spots in the world. This is the closer, action-focused companion to Glen's other Venice skate image, trading the wide airborne view for an intimate study of motion and balance.
In black and white, the composition is built on gesture and contrast: a single carving figure set against bright concrete and dark shadow.

In "Thin Red Line," Glen Wilbert photographs a pink-roofed lifeguard tower marked with the number 1 on a pale, high-key beach, with a long row of junior lifeguards in red suits lined up in the distance along the horizon behind it.
The image holds a soft, washed-out pastel palette, the white sand and pale sky nearly merging so the scene reads as a field of light. Glen framed the tower at center with its pink roof and blue numeral as the main points of color, while the distant line of lifeguards forms the thin red band that gives the picture its title, a single horizontal stroke of red across the muted ground. A low brick wall runs along the foreground. The spare, minimal framing turns the beach into an almost empty stage.
This is part of Glen's Southern California junior-lifeguard series, here pulled back to its most minimal: the lone tower and the far red line. It shares its subject with his other lifeguard images but trades pattern and crowd for emptiness and a single accent of color.
A study in pastel light and restraint, where a beach is reduced to pale space and one thin line of red.

In "Sunset, Pacific Coast Highway," Glen Wilbert photographs a turquoise convertible lowrider crossing the Pacific Coast Highway at sunset, the car moving across a wide striped crosswalk while a row of palm trees lines the horizon against a glowing sky.
The image holds a warm pastel palette, the sky shading from soft blue down to gold and the whole scene carrying a slightly faded, sun-washed tone. Glen framed the bright turquoise car off-center on the crosswalk, its color standing out against the muted asphalt, with the painted white stripes leading in from the foreground and the silhouetted palms and traffic signals strung across the back. The ocean sits as a thin line beyond the intersection. The single car in motion is the decisive moment that completes the composition.
The Pacific Coast Highway, running along the Southern California shoreline, is one of the most iconic drives in America. The classic convertible, palms, and sunset place this squarely in the When in Roam road-trip and California-culture theme.
A study in pastel light and color, where a single bright car anchors a sun-faded coastal scene.

In "Sunset Zoetrope," Glen Wilbert photographs a line of birds flying in single file along the horizon at sunset, the evenly spaced silhouettes strung across a sky that shades from deep blue at the top to orange at the waterline above a calm beach.
The image holds a clean pastel gradient, blue melting through to gold, with the birds reading as small dark shapes spaced almost rhythmically across the lower third of the frame. Glen kept the composition spare and horizontal: a broad open sky, a thin line of headland, the gentle surf, and the wet sand catching the warm color below. The repeated, evenly spaced birds give the picture its title, suggesting the frames of a zoetrope or a single motion broken into steps.
The scene was made on the California coast at dusk, capturing the flock's passage along the shore. The repetition of the birds in motion reflects what Glen describes as the decisive moment, here stretched into a sequence across the sky.
A study in pastel gradient and rhythm, where a line of birds marks soft intervals across the horizon.

In "Reflecting on Cannon Beach," Glen Wilbert photographs Haystack Rock at Cannon Beach, Oregon, the large sea stack rising from the surf while its shape is mirrored on the smooth wet sand of the foreground at low tide.
The image is rendered in black and white, with the dark mass of Haystack Rock centered on the horizon and its reflection stretching toward the camera across the shining flats. Glen framed the scene so the patches of mirror-like wet sand and shallow pools break the foreground into soft reflective shapes, repeating the rock's silhouette in pale gray. The overcast sky keeps the tones even and quiet, focusing attention on the contrast between the solid rock and its broken reflection.
Haystack Rock is the signature landmark of the Oregon coast and a frequent stop on Pacific Northwest road trips. This is a closer, reflection-focused companion to Glen's other Cannon Beach image, here giving the mirrored sand the leading role.
In black and white, the composition is built on silhouette and reflection: a dark sea stack and its pale echo on the wet sand.

In "Pink Sunset, California," Glen Wilbert photographs a quiet California beach at sunset, a few small sandpipers gathered on the wet sand in the foreground while a soft pink and peach sky spreads above a gently breaking wave.
The image holds a warm pastel palette of rose, peach, and pale blue, the colors of the sky echoed in the sheen of the wet sand below. Glen framed the scene low so the smooth, mirror-like beach fills the lower half and reflects the soft light, with the small birds reading as dark points against it and a thin line of white surf crossing the middle. The overall softness keeps the picture calm and luminous rather than dramatic.
The scene captures an ordinary, peaceful moment on the California coast at the end of the day, the shorebirds working the tide line. The soft light and beachfront subject connect it directly to the When in Roam coastal work.
A study in pastel light and reflection, where a soft sky and wet sand meet in gentle color.

In "Maine," Glen Wilbert photographs the gable end of a weathered shingled fishing shack hung with lobster buoys, a paned window at the center and a dark open doorway below, with a pair of crab claws nailed above the door.
The image is rendered in black and white, which brings out the texture of the aged wood shingles and the worn paint on the hanging buoys. Glen framed the wall straight on so the buoys, the window, and the doorway arrange themselves into a loose grid across the surface, each buoy a slightly different shape and tone. The reflection of bare trees shows faintly in the window glass, and the crab claws over the door add an odd, specific detail.
This is a piece of New England coastal Americana, the working buoys and gear of a Maine lobster fishery left on the building as everyday decoration. Glen records it as an arrangement of found objects on a textured wall.
In black and white, the composition is built on texture and arrangement: worn buoys and shingles read as shape and tone.

In "Lifeguard Tower 7, Southern California," Glen Wilbert photographs a blue lifeguard tower marked with the number 7, cropping in close on its angular side and railing so the structure fills the left of the frame against a soft, hazy sky, with the ocean and a thin strip of beach below.
The image holds a muted pastel palette of teal blue and pale gray, the tower's flat painted panels and steel railing set against an almost colorless sky. Glen framed the building from the side and let its sloping roofline and supporting legs form clean diagonals, with the bold numeral 7 anchoring the composition. The distant surf and sandy bluff at the lower edge place the tower on the coast without competing with it.
Numbered lifeguard towers line the beaches of Southern California and recur throughout Glen's coastal work. Here a single tower is treated as a quiet study in color, shape, and signage.
A study in pastel tone and clean shape, where a coastal structure is reduced to color and number.

In "Lifeguard Caps, Southern California," Glen Wilbert photographs a dense crowd of junior lifeguards seated on the sand, shot from above so the yellow caps repeat across the whole frame like a scattered field of dots among red suits and bare shoulders.
The image fills edge to edge with the seated group, the bright yellow swim caps providing a repeating pattern across a warm ground of skin, red swimsuits, and patches of blue clothing. Glen's elevated, top-down vantage removes the horizon entirely, turning the gathering into an overall texture of color and repetition. The packed, busy surface rewards close looking, with small individual moments emerging from the crowd.
This is a companion to Glen's other junior-lifeguard images from the Southern California coast, where the camp's caps and suits become the raw material for pattern. Where the swimming picture spreads red caps across open water, this one packs yellow caps tight across the sand.
A study in pastel color and repetition, where a crowd is read as an allover field of pattern.

In "Lifeguard Camp, Huntington Beach," Glen Wilbert photographs a group of junior lifeguards swimming across pale green water in red caps, shot from directly above so the swimmers, their white wakes, and a few scattered red and blue floats spread across the frame like marks on a field.
The image is shot from a high overhead vantage that flattens the sea into a soft pastel plane of mint and aqua, with the red caps reading as bright points of color distributed across it and the white churn of swimming bodies breaking up the surface. The even color and scattered red dots give the photograph a strong graphic, near-abstract quality.
Huntington Beach, known as Surf City on the Southern California coast, runs a well-known junior lifeguard program. This image won First Place, Photographer of the Year at the 2024 iPhone Photography Awards.

In "Last Ride Home, Southern California," Glen Wilbert photographs a lone surfer riding a breaking wave at dusk, shot from above so the figure and the white spray of the wave sit against a wide expanse of open, rippling sea.
The image is rendered in black and white, with the surfer reduced to a small dark shape trailing a burst of foam as the wave peels diagonally across the lower frame. Glen shot from a high vantage, likely a pier or drone, flattening the water into a field of soft grays and placing the single rider off-center against the heavy, cloud-streaked sky and silver horizon. The breaking wave is the one bright, active mark in an otherwise calm and open composition.
The scene captures a quiet end-of-day moment on the Southern California coast, a single surfer catching a final wave. It connects to the When in Roam theme of West Coast beach culture, here in a darker, more atmospheric register.
In black and white, the composition is built on scale and contrast: a small figure and a curl of white set against wide gray water.

"In ""Learning To Fly, Venice Beach,"" Glen Wilbert photographs a skateboarder caught at the top of a jump above the curved concrete bowls of the Venice Beach Skatepark, with palm trees, onlookers, and the flat coastline stretching behind.
The image is rendered in black and white, with the smooth gray sweeps of the skate bowls filling the foreground and the lone airborne skater silhouetted against the bright sky at the upper left. Glen shot low and wide so the curved walls of the park curl across the frame and the long shadows of the palms fall in dark diagonal strokes over the concrete. The skater, frozen with arms out and board underfoot, is the decisive moment the picture is built around.
The Venice Beach Skatepark, on the oceanfront in Los Angeles, is one of the most famous public skate spots in the world. Glen frames it as a study of curved form and arrested motion rather than an action shot.
In black and white, the composition is built on curve and contrast: the sweeping concrete and dark shadows against a single figure in the air.

In "Cannon Beach Reflections," Glen Wilbert photographs Haystack Rock and the smaller sea stacks at Cannon Beach, Oregon, with the foreground given over to a pattern of shallow tide pools and wet sand at low tide.
The image is rendered in black and white and built in two parts: the misty rock formations along the upper horizon, and the large foreground of irregular tide pools that form a map-like pattern of light water and darker sand. Glen positioned the camera low and back so the pools lead the eye across the frame toward Haystack Rock, which sits softened by coastal haze. The result emphasizes the shapes the receding tide leaves behind as much as the famous rock itself.
Haystack Rock is one of the most recognizable landmarks on the Oregon coast and a frequent stop on Pacific Northwest road trips. Glen treats it as one element in a larger study of pattern and tone rather than the sole subject.
In black and white, the composition is built on pattern and tonal contrast: the bright pools and dark sand beneath the soft mass of the rock.

In "California Love," Glen Wilbert photographs a lone surfer crossing wet sand carrying a board, shot from high above so the figure casts a long shadow that stretches diagonally across the frame, with the words "CALIFORNIA" and "LOVE" set into the upper and lower corners. Glen captured the exact moment the shadow created the shape of a heart.
The image is rendered in black and white and composed as a poster, with the high overhead viewpoint turning the surfer and their shadow into the main graphic element against the broad expanse of dark, textured sand. The long shadow is the decisive feature, cutting across the composition and giving a single small figure a strong diagonal line. The stenciled text frames the image and gives it the feel of a vintage travel or surf poster.
The scene captures the everyday ritual of a California surfer walking the beach, treated with a graphic, design-forward sensibility. It connects directly to the When in Roam theme of California coastal culture.
In black and white, the composition is built on silhouette and shadow: a single figure and its long diagonal across open sand.

In "Bicycle Rack, Huntington Beach," Glen Wilbert photographs five surfboards standing upright in the sand, spaced evenly across the frame in yellow, red, white, green, and pink, with the flat beach, a low wall, the ocean, and a distant lifeguard tower behind them.
The composition is built on repetition and spacing: five vertical boards lined up like marks across a horizontal field, each a different color against the pale sand and sky. Glen shot the scene head-on and from a distance, flattening it into clean horizontal bands, sand, wall, beach, sea, sky, interrupted by the upright boards. The palette is soft and sun-washed, the colors muted rather than saturated, which is characteristic of his pastel coastal work.
Huntington Beach, on the Southern California coast, is known as Surf City and is a recurring location in Glen's beach photographs. The boards' even spacing gives an everyday beach scene the ordered, deliberate quality of a designed composition.
A study in pastel tones and clean spacing, where the California coast is reduced to color and interval.

In "Beach Lifeguard Tower," Glen Wilbert photographs a California lifeguard tower from directly below, framing the angular underside of the structure against a plain sky, with a breaking wave reflected in the slanted glass of its window.
The image is rendered in black and white, which strips the tower down to its lines and planes: the diagonal of the roof, the X-braces of the railing, the louvered vents beneath the deck. Glen shot from close range and low, so the building reads less as a beach hut and more as a set of intersecting angles. The reflected wave in the window is the decisive detail, a curl of surf caught in the glass, placing the ocean inside the architecture without showing it directly.
Lifeguard towers are a fixture of the Southern California coastline and a recurring subject in Glen's beach work. Here the familiar structure is reframed as a study in geometry rather than a postcard of the shore.
In black and white, the composition is built on line and angle: the hard edges of the tower set against soft sky and reflected water.

In "Crosswalk," Glen Wilbert photographs a lone surfer walking across a wide beach carrying a board, shot from above so the figure sits small in the frame while overlapping tire tracks curve across the sand around him, with a hazy line of palm trees along the horizon.
The image is rendered in black and white, the pale sand and misty background nearly bleaching out while the dark tire ruts and the surfer's silhouette hold the eye. Glen shot from a high vantage that flattens the beach into a soft gray field, so the crossing arcs of tire tracks read as a network of curved lines drawn across it. The surfer, small and dark near the center, sits exactly at the intersection of several tracks, a single moving figure caught among the traces of everything that has already passed.
The scene is an early-morning moment on the Southern California coast, the beach still foggy and marked by the passes of overnight patrol and cleaning vehicles. It fits directly into Glen's ongoing California surf and coastal work.
In black and white, the composition is built on pattern and gesture: sweeping curved tracks across pale sand and a single figure crossing them.
