Dawn Lights up the Foliage in Salem Harbor

By Eyal Oren|2016-11-06T12:05:49-05:00October 16th, 2013|Categories: Salem Harbor|Tags: Fall, foliage, Salem harbor|

On Tuesdays, I have to be at work by 7:30am for early appointments and to supervise allergen immunotherapy. Most of the time, that ends up on either end of the sunrise and dawn but, twice a year, I manage to cross Lafayette Street at just the right time. This year, I had been keeping my eye on the trees that line the rail trail and Salem Harbor waiting for them to show some signs of changing color. The color seemed to come on this week and I decided to head back at some point to capture it. When Tuesday rolled [...]

Foliage in the Fog at Waterside Cemetery

By Eyal Oren|2016-11-06T12:05:49-05:00October 15th, 2013|Categories: Fall|Tags: cemetery, Fall, fog, foliage, Waterside Cemetery|

Last night I had a bit of writer's block (or whatever the equivalent is called). I sat in front of my computer scrolling through the 383 images of Marblehead that are in my 'to be posted' folder and just could not decide on a theme, let alone an image. I put the question up on my FB page and the first five responses were for: sun, fog, foliage, ocean, architectural detail. Given the time of year, I opted to go with foliage and found this image with some fog and (it's a stretch) architectural detail in the form of the [...]

Calm Waters in Marblehead Harbor

By Eyal Oren|2016-11-06T12:05:49-05:00October 11th, 2013|Categories: Marblehead Harbor|Tags: boats, lighthouse, Marblehead Harbor, sunset|

This seemed like a good photo to finish off the week and get the long weekend off to a nice start. I shared two images from this vantage point already - the Harvest Moon and the 116 Megapixel panorama that immediately preceded it. While I was at this unique spot overlooking the perfectly calm waters in Marblehead Harbor, I couldn't help by shoot all the compositions that came to mind as the sun set and the pink colors of sunset reflected off the water. I don't often shoot verticals - especially when the horizontal offers so much more to take [...]

Turning Leaves at Herreshoff Castle

By Eyal Oren|2013-10-09T22:19:10-04:00October 10th, 2013|Categories: Fall|Tags: Crocker park, Fall, foliage|

I was out yesterday looking for signs of Fall on a crisp cool day and found myself at Crocker Park at one point. As I walked up the road leading to the park, I passed Herreshoff Castle on my right. I have tried to figure out a unique composition for this castle in Marblehead but failed until I spotted the leaves changing color along the entryway. I positioned the camera fairly close to the ground so that you could just make out the front door with its large knocker as you looked beyond the red leaves. The sky cooperated well [...]

Marblehead Harbor Under a Beautiful Sky

By Eyal Oren|2016-11-06T12:05:50-05:00October 9th, 2013|Categories: Marblehead Harbor|Tags: boats, clouds, lighthouse, Marblehead Harbor|

Do you remember that Storm Chasing image I shared in mid-September? This is what I had been after that day. Great cumulus clouds were forming over Marblehead Harbor and I drove out to try to capture the scene of the harbor filled with boats under a beautiful sky. By the time I reached this spot, the clouds seemed to be chased by rapidly darkening sky. I only managed two frames before the darkness caught up to and seemed to consume these fluffy white clouds. I wasn't long before I would race out to Chandler Hovey Park and capture the storm [...]

Summer Swim Under the Light of the Moon

By Eyal Oren|2016-11-06T12:05:50-05:00October 8th, 2013|Categories: Beach|Tags: beach, Devereux Beach, moon, people, sunset|

As the days get cooler, I can't let go of these Summer images. This particular one came from mid-July when I was fortunate to capture great wispy clouds reflecting the pink light of sunset over Devereux Beach. The ocean was warm enough at this point for people to be captured in silhouette swimming in the waters. Can't really beat the feeling of a warm Summer night spent at Devereux Beach.

Gatchell Playground and the Maple Tree

By Eyal Oren|2014-04-20T15:13:27-04:00October 7th, 2013|Categories: Fall|Tags: Fall, foliage, Gatchell's park, playground, tree|

The Maple tree at the Gatchell playground is a lot like that Charlie Brown tree. It's sad, probably dying but it's also one of the first trees in town to change colors and always seems like it might surprise you and really 'pop' one of these years. Last year was a pretty sad display and I photographed the tree by using a puddle to help keep focus on the lower half. This year, I actually visited twice as the color was surprisingly good with most of the tree turning at the same time and very little leaf drop right off [...]

Sunset over Marblehead Harbor – A Panorama

I'm catching up on photos on this grey, rainy Sunday and found a set of 15 vertical images I took immediately before the Harvest Moon rose on September 19th. Here is the stitched panorama which weighs in at 116 Megapixels.

The End of Summer in Marblehead

By Eyal Oren|2016-11-06T12:05:50-05:00October 4th, 2013|Categories: Marblehead Harbor|Tags: Crocker park, Marblehead Harbor, people, Summer|

I was trying to decide on an image to share today and started looking at the 'to be posted' folder of images. As I worked my way down the list with the windows open and the cool air coming in, I knew that I needed to find an image that exemplified the end of Summer in Marblehead. Though the leaves have started to turn colors, this small burst of Summer-like weather had put me back in that frame of mind. As soon as I clicked on this image, I knew it would be perfect. This was taken on July 31st [...]

Peak Fall Colors at Green Street Cemetery

By Eyal Oren|2016-11-06T12:05:50-05:00October 3rd, 2013|Categories: Cemetery|Tags: cemetery, Fall, foliage, gravestone, Green Street Cemetery|

There is a great maple tree at the corner of Elm and Creesy Streets which I photographed last year and shared at Halloween. As I drove around town this weekend looking for early signs of Fall, I spotted this tree at peak Fall colors and decided to look for a new composition. Rather than including the gravestone I had previously focused on, I chose this one that reads Benj. Lindsey. There are other names as well - Hannah and Nathaniel. I was unable to find much information about the individuals buried here and will see if anyone can add to [...]
