A lifeguard tower numbered 44 stands sentinel on an expansive sandy beach, its geometric wooden structure commanding the right side of the composition while swimmers and beachgoers scatter across the water and sand in the distance. Shot in black and white, the photograph captures a timeless coastal scene with soft, overcast skies and gently tracked sand, emphasizing the solitary authority of the tower against the open horizon. Bound with 52 pages of 70lb paper, lined or unlined, behind an anti-scuff matte cover with wraparound artwork, made to order. Notes and sketches kept behind an independent artist's work, not a plain composition cover.
