Haircut!
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…

Enders 10.17.2010
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.…

Happy Birthday Grandma J!
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…

Myrtle Beach sunrise 10.9.2010
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…

Point Judith 10.2.2010
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…

Happy Birthday Vovo!
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…

Watch Hill 9.26.2010
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,…

StepStone Falls 9.26.2010
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…

EAJ week 119 update:
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…

End of the summer iphone update!
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…

ThinkTankPhoto Lens Changer 3 video review!
I recently picked up a lens changer 3 from thinktankphoto. Well, I guess I shouldn’t say recently, I tend to take my time evaluating a product before I consider reviewing it because I want to see how I like the product after the initial “honeymoon” has worn off. For this reason my bag reviews generally…

Newton Ave 9.18.2010
Went down to Newton Ave Saturday AM with Brian. We had a nice time shooting the sunrise. It wasn’t epic, but it was MUCH better than last weekend. We went down to PJ and then Monahan’s afterwards to look for surfers but really didn’t see much.

Fun filled weekend!
Well it’s been a busy and fun weekend. The above shot is actually one I DID NOT TAKE. Credit for that goes to Brian Harrington who’s a friend of mine through the forum and a fellow landscape shooter. He and I shot Newton Ave Saturday morning then went down to Point Judith to check the…

Sachuest 9.11.2010
Had an AWESOME group of NSOP guys at Sachuest Saturday. We were joking there were more of us than clouds in the sky as it was BLUE BIRD… Not great for landscapes but it was still fun with the group. The guys had flown into town for a party so after the lackluster sunrise we…

EAJ 117 week update!
Well I skipped last weeks update. We’ve just been super busy lately and honestly I didn’t have all that many pictures to add so I figured I’d do a 2fer. We had an adventurous week though… A skunk decided to try to move into the crawl space directly under our bedroom… We ended up spending…
