Jersey Shore

85 images capture the life, sights, and scenes along the New Jersey Shore from Sandy Hook to Cape May. From 30,000 feet the shore looks to be all the same-130 miles of a very thin and vulnerable line of sand-and Long Beach Island is the poster child. A closer look reveals an intense, dense variety of buildings and human activity with a few preserved bits of land. Behind it are bays, estuaries, and marshes-essential nurseries for fish and habitats for shore birds. These 85 images are a variety of eye-catching and colorful scenes that await a willing photographer or painter.
