Made it out to Allens Pond in Massachusetts for the sunrise this morning. This was a new spot for me and one I’ll definitely return to as it’s got a great mix of “water ‘n rocks” in that there are the massive permanent rocks, then a lot of mobile rocks ranging from basketballs to golf ball size as […]

The gang from NSOP decided a sunrise on thanksgiving would be fun, so 6 of us made it down to Beavertail this morning to shoot together. It was very fun, and mother natures played quite nice with us (it looked like it could be blue bird on the drive down). It was cold for the […]

Well, Nikki Pat and Russell!!! It was a three way b-day and the Stinton’s Sunday. They threw a great party for everyone which save us a TON of work, so a big thank you for that. We also went an picked out our Xmas Tree at Big John’s Saturday and I spent the afternoon raking […]

Made it out to Bass Rock Road Sunday… The plan was to shoot with the group Saturday AM but I slept through my alarm… So I went on Sunday and got rewarded with a pretty good sunrise. Bass Rock is a tricky place to shoot so it was fun to work the area and find […]

Had a busy week this week. I taught a landscape photography class which meant I was teaching Thursday from 6-9 as well as Saturday from 6am-noon and 3pm-6pm (if we do it again that will change). Beyond that we went to Katie and Matt and Hayden and Nolan’s Saturday night to watch Toy Story […]

I got the chance to teach a class on landscape photography this past week. Andy and I taught it together and I know I had a blast doing it. If we get the chance to do it again I’m sure we’ll rework a few things to improve it, but the students all seemed to enjoy […]

Yep, it’s that time again. So if you see what looks like scruff on my face it’s a “beard”. No, really, it is. Also, Elias is learning how to take pictures with my camera now which has been fun. It started a few weeks ago with him holding the camera to his face, eyes closed […]

Made it out to Beavertail for what’s probably the latest sunrise of the year. The surf was quite high and there were plenty of clouds but there really wasn’t much color. We still had four people in the group though and had a great morning.

Think Tank was kind enough to send me a UD70 and three custom pixel pocket rockets as giveaways for the forum for the end of the year. Make sure you use my link if you’re going to buy ANY think tank gear as you get a free gift (if you buy enough) and I get […]

Happy Halloween everyone! Elias and I had a great time going trick -or- treating tonight. Elias was Buzz and I went as woody. About 1/4 of the people recognized me, but half or more knew what Elias was. I think most of the hander-outers didn’t think I was dressed up? My parents also left Thursday […]

Andy and I made it out to Devil’s Hopyard for our Halloween morning shoot. I was pleasantly surprised by this location. Not only was it a great place to shoot, but the drive in was an amazingly fun road to drive on, twisty, hilly, smooth, tight, it had all the elements of a great drive. […]

… and no, that’s not me writing something with a RI accent… Elias is now pooping in the potty most of the time. He’s had a few accidents here and there but he’s now asking to use the potty when it’s convenient for him (ie he’s not playing). We had a chart going where 5 […]
