Hurricane Bill!
Yeah, these are basically the same old things I usually share, just with bigger waves. Turns out my camera may have gotten a little too wet on a wave that caught me off guard as well as it stopped working. We’ll see how it drys out, and it’s insured, but that’s a headache I don’t…

Ledge Road:
Went out for another sunrise this morning. Andy had scouted out a new spot for us in Newport at the end of Ledge road. We’re still not sure if we can legally park there (it’s a residential sticker area from 8am to 6pm and a fishing sticker needed after 9pm, but technically 5am is before…

Block Island
Well, while on the boat at Block Island this weekend I decided to get up for a sunrise and see what would happen. The biggest issue is you have to approach everything from the water side in the dinghy. Being alone, that made attempting a landing pretty sketchy, nevermind in the dark. I did try…

Newton Road V
Went back to Newton for another sunrise. Yes, this is at least the fifth time, but it just doesn’t get old for some reason. It was a super low tide so I was able to make it out to the outer rocks w/o much issue. I was also playing with a new 12mm lens which…

Point Judith II
Well this was my first sunrise since the 4 in a row on vacation. It was great to get out there again. The sunrise was OK, the sun itself was pretty rad, but then as soon as it was light enough the surfers started piling into the water. That made it a bit more interesting…

Newton Road IV:
Made it 4 for 4 sunrises Saturday morning. I ended up meeting up with Dave from Flickr and he wanted to shoot Newton for his first time since high school. So off we went. It’s my fourth time down there recently but I don’t mind as there’s always plenty of new shots to try out…

Narragansett Beach:
Well it’s now 3 in a row for “sunrises”, but unfortunately it’s 2 in a row for not actually ever seeing the sun. I decided to try Narragansett beach on for size and it was fun. It meant I got to walk the length of the beach in order to get to where I wanted…

Point Judith Lighthouse.
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…

Hazard Road III:
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,…

Sachuest Bird Sanctuary II
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…

2009 RI Air Show!
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…

Newton Road III:
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…

Sachuest Bird Sanctuary I
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…

Hulls Cove, Jamestown RI
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…

Beavertail
Got up early this morning for another Sunrise shoot. It was another nice morning, with a decent sunrise, but not as many clouds as last week. I still came away with some keepers, but not as good as last weeks.
