A Blanket of Snow in Historic Downtown Marblehead

After a week of sun and warm temperatures in the Turks and Caicos, my family and I returned to the tail end of a beautiful snowfall and near blizzard conditions yesterday.  While the snow from Friday was the perfect consistency to stick to trees and the sunset that followed was amazing, I was several thousand feet up in the air while all that took place.  Yesterday's fluffy snow blew too hard and the light never materialized for an outing. Instead, I turned to the archive and realized that this image was taken exactly three years ago - February 9, 2013.  Another [...]

Christmas in Marblehead – Last Light on Marblehead Light

When I go out to shoot the town of Marblehead, it is not uncommon for me to find at least five different compositions in good light and then have to select one to share and place others in the archive.  On this day, I had set up at the pier of the Pleon Yacht Club which offered me a number of photographic possibilities.  This week, I wanted to share five different images captured from 3:45pm to 4:05pm on Christmas in Marblehead. As the light began to fade, I moved to the right edge of the pier and composed this image [...]

Christmas in Marblehead – Soft Light on an Empty Harbor

When I go out to shoot the town of Marblehead, it is not uncommon for me to find at least five different compositions in good light and then have to select one to share and place others in the archive.  On this day, I had set up at the pier of the Pleon Yacht Club which offered me a number of photographic possibilities.  This week, I wanted to share five different images captured from 3:45pm to 4:05pm on Christmas in Marblehead. After capturing the close up of Abbot Hall, I zoomed out and focused on the clouds that were now [...]

Christmas in Marblehead – Abbot and the Waterfront

When I go out to shoot the town of Marblehead, it is not uncommon for me to find at least five different compositions in good light and then have to select one to share and place others in the archive.  On this day, I had set up at the pier of the Pleon Yacht Club which offered me a number of photographic possibilities.  This week, I wanted to share five different images captured from 3:45pm to 4:05pm on Christmas in Marblehead. I couldn't pass up a chance to shoot Abbot Hall in this light so I composed this image to [...]

Christmas in Marblehead – Old North and the Houses

When I go out to shoot the town of Marblehead, it is not uncommon for me to find at least five different compositions in good light and then have to select one to share and place others in the archive.  On this day, I had set up at the pier of the Pleon Yacht Club which offered me a number of photographic possibilities.  This week, I wanted to share five different images captured from 3:45pm to 4:05pm on Christmas in Marblehead. Next is this image of Old North Church and houses along the waterfront taken just a few minutes after [...]

Christmas in Marblehead – Grace and St Michaels

When I go out to shoot the town of Marblehead, it is not uncommon for me to find at least five different compositions in good light and then have to select one to share and place others in the archive.  On this day, I had set up at the pier of the Pleon Yacht Club which offered me a number of photographic possibilities.  This week, I wanted to share five different images captured from 3:45pm to 4:05pm on Christmas in Marblehead. First up was this shot looking across the harbor at Grace Community Church and St. Michael's Steeple poking out [...]

Taking the Launch

With warm images predicted for next week and little snow left on the ground, I thought it might be fun to look ahead to Summer. In early August, I had headed down to Marblehead Harbor on a picture perfect day to capture the view of a harbor filled with boats and clouds overhead.  Hammond Park seemed to be the perfect spot for this view but, as soon as I arrived, I realized the foreground was missing something. Only a few minutes later, a launch from the Marblehead Yacht Club came into the frame and I captured this view of someone [...]

Snow in Little Harbor

This is a very old image and actually precedes the start of Wednesdays in Marblehead which I created in August 2010.  We had moved to Marblehead in May 2008 and this was the first time I had captured Little Harbor after a snowfall.  The snow was heavy and wet allowing it to stick to the tree in the foreground as well as on Brown's Island. I've gone back to this spot several times over the past few years and have never seen the scene in this same way again.  That probably helps explain why, almost 6 years after starting this [...]

Snowy Sunrise at Castle Rock

I've made it a point the last few years to go out on the morning of my birthday to capture the sunrise.  As I was born in mid-February, that means I have a pretty good chance of capturing a snow filled scene.  Such was the case in 2014. On February 19, I headed out with a plan to capture a snowy sunrise at Castle Rock.  It had snowed the night before and I hoped the snow would remain undisturbed for my morning shoot.  I was thrilled to see this blanket of snow at Castle Rock as well as the almost [...]

A Snow Lined Road to Gerry Island

This image of a snow lined road leading to Gerry Island comes from another January snow storm - this time January 16, 2013.  Again, a morning snow storm allowed me to go out and capture the falling snow at a few locations around town.  When I realized it was low tide, I made it a point to head to Gerry Island hoping for this composition. The road to Gerry Island appears at low tide but capturing snow on the path requires the snow storm to have minimal wind and waves.  Such was not the case for the storm that just [...]
