Well, so far I’m 2 for 2 in waking up for the rest of the week. I decided today to go try Point Judith light. It’s a nice looking lighthouse right on the south western corner of the bay. It was a pretty gray moring w/o a good sunrise (I had to check my watch […]

We’re on vacation this week, and I came to the realization last night that I’d be more fun to go to sleep early (with Nikki) and wake up early (3:30am) and get some more sunrise shots this week. So I’m going to try to get a sunrise every morning for the rest of the week, […]

Another of my weekly sunrise series. Andy and Eric made it down to Sachuest with me Saturday morning and we had a great time shooting another sunrise. Mother Nature played nice as well so it was well worth it. Sachuest is a very nice place for sunrises though as there’s a TON of possible spots […]

This weekend was the airshow. We live very close to quonset point, so we always make it a point to at least see the show. I’ve honestly never been, and each year I say I should, but the idea of the crowds turns me off. But I have been going closer and closer with where […]

Most of you probably have no idea what that title’s all about, but Nikki and I are on vacation for a week… 2 days are already gone, but we’ve had some fun already. This weekend was the RI airshow which is basically in our back yard. So we had some friends over for that. Today […]

Happy Father’s Day to all the other Dads out there reading this! I had a wonderful day. Yes we had crappy weather all weekend, but we managed to have a lot of fun today and yesterday. Yesterday was my first bike ride for the year. The new bike path is very nice and just over […]

Andy and I went down to Newton Road again this morning. It looked and sounded like we’d get fogged out (waking up to the fog horn at 3am isn’t reasuring) but we went and I’m glad we did. The waves were pretty epic which made for some good shooting. The only downside is it coated […]

Yeah, I’m sure you’re sick and tired of hearing about this deck/patio, but think of how tired I am from working on the thing!!! This weekend my parents made some time to help again and we made some serious progress. Saturday Dad and I got all the pavers down for the patio while Nikki and […]

Went out shooting again this morning. It’s becoming a habit and I’m loving it. Normally I’m terrible at getting up, but it seems for shooting I can do it. It’s been a lot of fun and I’m getting some shots I’m happy with. I’m also finding some great locations all over RI that’s making me […]

This is an idea I’ve been playing with for a while now. I use X-pro cokin filters and they don’t have a a 10-stop ND available. Actually, no one does. So I took some plexi, got it cut down to the right size and took it to the local tint shop and had them put […]

Well this morning I woke up at the crack of dawn (earlier even so I could shoot said crack) and shot another sunrise. This shouldn’t be a surprise at this point I suppose. We went on Sunday this week as Saturday it rained all morning. Hulls Cove in Jamestown was the location. It was a […]

Yeah, back to work this weekend! Last weekend I took a little time off for good behavior. Working on the little boat on Saturday (and sailing it to prove it was together right ;)). Sunday of last weekend was spent actually finishing the deck which felt good. But that only meant I had the patio […]

HAPPY BIRTHDAY JESS!!!!! Not much to report today that hasn’t already been posted. I shot the sunrise below this morning, and yesterday I got to go sailing for the first time this season. Today, I finished the deck (yes there’s a pic, but it’s not up yet, just look at last weeks only both railings […]
