    Made it down to Beavertail for the first time in a long time.  The clouds looked amazing on the way down there but they were a bit too far offshore to really be amazing in pictures.  There were a bunch of people on the rocks on the west side as well making it hard to…

    Made it out to Green Falls Pond for the first time this morning.  The TS-E I’d borrowed from canon needed to be shipped today so I wanted one last go with it.  This was a great place and the colors were pretty well at peak which was great.

    The think tank sling -O- matic 20 is a mouthful, let me start with that!  I will say this is the most impressive sling bag I’ve tried to date, and that’s a long list (incase DLSR sling, LowePro classifieds (both sizes), Kata 3n1-30).  If you want a killer sling that’s well thought out, this is…

    Wow, busy weekend but only because we did tons of fun things!  Saturday we got up around 7am and I started vacuuming while Nikki got Elias up and we cleaned the house and were out the door by 8:30am.  We took Elias to Andy’s Barber who’s now cut 4 generations of Stinton hair!  Elias did…

    Andy and I headed out to Enders this morning.  We had a great time shooting a few different falls there.  This is really a spot where we have to go with someone as there are some big drops here and it’s all wet rocks so we made sure to keep each other in one piece.…

    Stopped by Ryan park on my way home tonight to grab a shot of the amazing clouds.   Of course I got there about 15 minutes late, but I’ve got a 24mm TS-E on loan from canon so I “needed” to test it out.

    Grandma J (my Dad’s Mom) turned 91 last week and we were fortunate enough to be able to fly down to Myrtle Beach for a long weekend to spend some time with her.  Elias did very well on the airplanes and LOVED the beach.  We went for long walks on the beach every morning we…

    While I was in Myrtle Beach visiting my Grandmother for her 91st birthday I decided to get up early and shoot the sunrise on the beach.  It was a nice change of pace from all the water and rocks back home, and also because the sunrise is a full hour later being that far west…

    Dave and I went down to Point Judith this morning.  The storm and it’s associated clouds had already passed through so the sunrise was a bit tricky to shoot, but it was fun seeing the surfers show up before the sun was over the horizon and paddle out.  We stuck around to shoot some surfers…

    Yes I know I’m a week behind on these shots, but I’ve been super busy trying to merge 3 of my sites into one (this will be one of the lasts posts on benjacobsen.com, click here to see this post on benjacobsenphoto.com).  But we’ve been having a ton of fun with Great Grandmother’s lately.  Elias…

    Finally made it down to Watch Hill RI this morning.  I skipped yesterday morning because I woke up at 4:30 and you could CLEARLY see everything in the back yard with the bright moon and ZERO clouds in the sky.  Because I missed the day where someone else in the group had called the location,…

    I also hit up Stepstone falls this morning since it’s on the way home from the lighthouse.  I couldn’t believe how low the water was there today as I’ve only seen it with a lot more water flowing.  It was a lot of fun to be able to explore the area by simply walking down…

    Well Elias had a bit of a breakthrough this week.  This might be a bit gross to some of you but he pooped on the potty for the first time!  He’s done it twice more since.  Big steps towards getting out of diapers which is great.   Not much going on besides that, I’ve been…

    Sorry to dump this many shots on you guys at once, but I haven’t grabbed the images off the iPhones in a while so I decided to put them all in one gallery and share them with you guys.  So enjoy almost 100 shots from early July through late september!  Nikki gets credit for most…
