Christian discovered Solargraphy during lockdown and, following a steep learning curve has produced a fascinating study of lighthouses around New Jersey. Perhaps some of the best Solargraph work I’ve seen. https://primitivepines.com/beacons-through-time/. And IG https://instagram.com/primitivepines?igshid=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==
