In August, 2016, our first trip to Saint John, U.S. Virgin Islands, represented an incredibly deep well of lavish scenery that had been captured with my original documentary project Rare Air in mind. All but two of the episodes that I’ve published since then have been based on that year’s footage. As it winds up, Episode 25 features the last cinematography captured in that wondrous location on that trip.
I hope you’ll be happy to hear that there is more to come from our favorite Caribbean retreat. With what I photographed last year, there are probably at least another seven good episodes. In terms of audio and video quality, they all are better than what you will see here from Salt Pond Bay. The minute I’m showing here from June 13 remains pretty special, at least to me.
Here’s a memory lane wayfinder for our 2016 Saint John adventure, as it lines up here and in Rare Air.
