A Fabulous Finisher

A stellar final hole at Sterling Farms Golf Course

In 2019, I spent some time photographing the holes at Sterling Farms Golf Course over the summer and fall. I’d go early, late, and at other times of the day. Sometimes I’d be in heat, or the fog, and just everything else, and later, when I look back at some of the shots, it’s interesting how each hole can look so different depending on the conditions.

This is an example of the effort shown by way of the iconic 18th hole. These are but a minute fraction of the shots I took of this golf hole, and odds are, the nature of the collection will change with time.

Have a look, and see if you can’t outshoot me! If you think you have, send me your masterpiece, and I’ll include it here!
