Long Exposure – A Waterfall in Marblehead

It’s been a while since I shared a long exposure image on what has become ‘long exposure Tuesday’ on this site.  In part, that is due to having not shot in a while.  In fact, today’s image comes from almost exactly one year ago – June 17, 2012.

Calling this a long exposure is a bit of a stretch considering the exposure time was really only 0.3 seconds.  However, the goal was to slow the shutter enough to essentially created the appearance of a waterfall in Marblehead.  I’m going to stop there and leave some mystery as to the location […]

Long Exposure – Red Sky in Morning, Sailor Take Warning

This image has been waiting in the ‘to be posted’ folder since a birthday shoot on February 19th.  I had shared another image from that sunrise several months ago but kept this long exposure one ‘in the queue’ until now.

By day, this is a pretty disorienting ride and I can only imagine what it must be like in the dark.  I decided to shoot from […]

Ferris Wheel on the Last Night of the Carnival

The 2013 Marblehead High School Senior carnival came into town on Thursday and, as is always the case, brought with it cold and a bit of rain to break up the warm Spring days we had been enjoying up til then.  The weather improved over the weekend and the carnival seemed better attended than recent years.  I had little opportunity to shoot without my kids clamoring for cash but managed a sunrise session and one evening shoot.

This image was taken on Saturday night.  I had arrived at 7pm and ended up parking behind Dennis Curtin and Rick Ashley (two great photographers […]
