This is where the Delaware Bay meets the Atlantic Ocean and considered one of the oldest vacation resort destinations in America. Cape May is also a National Historic Landmark due to its high concentration of Victorian Homes.

The homes are centuries old and beautifully crafted to give their own unique look. In this small condensed area of New Jersey, they're are over 600 preserved Victorian homes and buildings.

The photographs that are shown have been taken during the 1980's with a Pentex K-1000 fully manual camera and edited in Photoshop to add drama. The National Historic District has countless beautiful Victorian homes that I couldn't possibly take them all with using 35mm film. These homes were ones that caught my eye not knowing any history behind them or their names. I tend to venture down the lowest region of New Jersey again to shoot to my hearts content to as many homes as I can and update this page.

Until then, please enjoy what little that is here for it will give you a taste of how homes look in this undeniable beautiful Historic area. If you have never visited Cape may, New Jersey and are in the area, make it a point for it's certainly worth the time to spand a day or two and seek the sights that makes a wonderful vacation spot.
