Bryan and I made it out to Sachuest Sunday morning.  It was actually one of the better ocean sunrises in a long while this summer which was a nice treat.  Sachuest has always been a struggle for me in terms of including the actual sunrise, but I think I finally got something that works in…

On Tuesday Andy and I headed out to Bash Bish Falls in Massachusetts.  I basically grew up about 10 minutes from here but haven’t been back in over 10 years, especially not to shoot some serious landscapes.  Andy and I are always taking about doing some scapes further away, but between work schedules and family schedules…

Went to Devil’s Hopyard with Andy and Dan on Monday morning.  It was a bit foggy which made it less than ideal shooting wise, but with the three of us (and Dan’s not  a landscape guy) we had a blast figuring out the best way to shoot the place.  Enjoy.

My sister was in town over the weekend so I dragged her out on the one “partly cloudy” morning which turned into a total gray ugly morning, but we still made the best of it and had some fun.  We decided to go to Beavertail as she loves lighthouses (who doesn’t) and it’s the easiest…

Went to Stepstone Falls this morning.  What a crappy morning to force myself out of bed (pouring rain).  But I checked the radar and it looked like it should clear so I headed out anyway.  Sat in the car for an hour reading Outdoor Photographer (mail was still in the car) and the rain stopped…

Made it out to Gooseberry again this past weekend.  It was nice to get out of the woods literally, but the sunrise was a blow-out/bluebird so it actually would have been a better stream/waterfall morning, but you can’t win them all.  There was a ton of weed there this trip and hardly any wind so…

Andy and I trekked up to Purgatory Falls up in NH on Saturday.  This was another 2am start, which is painful, but ultimately worth it.  The mosquitoes were also the size of humming birds up here, but in the end I think I brought home some worthwhile images.  We spent most of the morning at the lower…

Made it out to Enders Falls Sunday AM with Andy and Dave.  Spring sunrises there are both beautiful and torture at the same time.  The beauty is in the amount of water with everything turning green and cleaning itself up.  The torture is that this is over 2 hours from my house and spring sunrises…

Got out to Hazard again this weekend.  The weather was tricky and was actually raining this morning, but it was SUPER clear Friday night, so I gambled and went for Sunday knowing it could be washed out…  Saturday’s sunrise didn’t look too amazing from the house, and the overcast/clouds made for some decent shots, so…

Made it out to Newton Saturday morning.  The weathermen sure aren't accurate lately as they forecast for rain from 5pm Friday though Saturday until Sunday at 5am…  Well, it didn't rain until after dark Saturday night, and all of Saturday to that point was beautiful!  It was nice to get down to Newton again as…

Well, after a month off to enjoy my new Daughter Isabella (I didn’t landscape once during April, but I hit up all the weekend through March) I finally made it out again this past weekend for the first weekend in May.  It was great to get out again, even if it was completely bluebird w/o…

I didn’t get to my shots from Beavertail last week (admittedly they’re a bit flat thanks to the fog/spray) so today you’re getting hit with a double post.  Today I went down to Sakonnet with Dave from the forum.  We had a great time shooting even though we didn’t get much color.  Last weekend was a…

Went back to Gooseberry again this weekend for the second weekend in a row and my third trip out there this year.  It’s a very interesting beach with a nice variety of rocks/sand/boulder, but it’s also somewhat protected from the massive rollers we get in RI (for better or worse).  A few of the guys…

I made it out to gooseberry again this morning.  I’m really starting to like this place as there’s a great mix of sand with small rocks and boulders.  It’s also got beach on both east south and west shores so I’ve found good wave action somewhere each time I’ve been here and I’ve also been…

Andy and I made it out to Enders Falls Saturday AM.  It was fun to see the place covered in snow and ice, but the snow was pretty dirty making clean compositions impossible.  We also couldn’t cross the stream to where the better views are as the snow was hiding where the rocks were making…
