Some of my favorite photos have been taken in the fog and we had some great fog in mid-February as a result of a warmup after the Blizzard. I have a number of images from that night (some already shared) and decided to bring this one out to finish up the week. As I made my way down Washington Street, I decided to turn around at Old Town House and look to see what Mugford Street might look like in the foggy conditions. It turns out that the street lamps were producing great diffused light as the road curved […]
Old Town House Open for the Festival of Arts
It’s the middle of March and far too cold outside so I went into the archive and pulled out this image from last Summer. It’s rare to have the Old Town House open its doors…let alone both of them.

I walked out the back and down the stairs and was happy that my camera was […]
Washington and Pleasant Street in the Fog
Did you know that Mud Puddle Toys is celebrating their 10th year anniversary? Seemed appropriate to post this image taken in early February of this year.

As I made my way down the street, I stopped at the corner of Washington and Pleasant in the hopes that a car would […]
Jeremiah Lee Mansion in the Fog
As you may recall, February 11th brought warmth and rain after the Blizzard of 2013 passed and led to some great dense fog at sunset. I headed out as soon as I could and captured a number of images. The best part of the fog was the diffusion it caused for the lights along Washington Street in Old Town. One of my first images was of the Jeremiah Lee Mansion. I knew that I would end up processing this image in black and white and there was something about the grate in the street that drew my eye. I […]
