Sometime Around Midnight

In the middle of August, I decided to try shooting areas around town under the light of the full moon. I started off around midnight and headed to Devereux Beach. My first image was of the swings and I shot as wide as I could to capture the moon above. With the long exposure (this is a 2 minute shot), the darkness of night is removed and you see a scene that looks a lot like a daytime view. If you look carefully, you'll see the streaking stars in the night sky. More midnight shots to come later this week.

Keep it Local – French + Italian

By Eyal Oren|2014-04-20T14:49:32-04:00September 30th, 2011|Categories: Keep it Local|Tags: business, French + Italian, HDR, keep it local|

Another Friday and another local business to feature on the site. This time it's the upscale women's clothier French + Italian. I took this photo on an early morning during the Winter parking ban in order to make sure that no cars would hide the beautiful facade of this store and building. There was so much to take in about this store. From the clapboard siding, the complementary colors of the two doors, the lightpost, and the morning sun lighting the top of the building, this was a wonderfully intricate scene to capture. Next time you're on Washington Street, make [...]

A Tug Named Erica

By Eyal Oren|2013-06-16T08:39:31-04:00September 29th, 2011|Categories: Uncategorized|Tags: boats, HDR, Little Harbor|

After shooting the sunset over Gerry Island, I made my way by the dry-dock area off Doaks Lane. I saw this great red tug boat standing there and knew I had to shoot her. I could make out the name Erica N on the side but could not find any information about the boat. If anyone knows her history, please let me know in the comments section below.

Play Ball at Seaside Park

By Eyal Oren|2014-04-20T16:41:08-04:00September 28th, 2011|Categories: Uncategorized|Tags: baseball, chimney, park, Seaside park|

I made my way down to Seaside Park on a beautiful Summer Day to try a reshoot of the area behind the stands (that was the 'mystery' shot posted yesterday). After I finished shooting that area, I made my way to the diamond and stared out from home plate. The sky and clouds were perfect so I set up for one more picture to capture the feel of getting ready to bat in this beautifully appointed field.

Handprints on the Chimney

By Eyal Oren|2014-04-20T16:41:21-04:00September 27th, 2011|Categories: Uncategorized|Tags: chimney, park, Seaside park|

I'm going to make this one interesting and see if my viewers can come up with the location. The answer will come with tomorrow's post. For those who know where this is, can you answer these questions that I still have: Who's handprints are those and why are they there? What does the NEWS sign mean? Update: The answer was the back of the stands at Seaside park. I still don't know the answers to the questions above though...

A Horse-Drawn Carriage Ride Through Town

By Eyal Oren|2013-06-16T08:39:56-04:00September 26th, 2011|Categories: Fall|Tags: Fall, Old Town, Old Town House, Washington Street|

The Fall Festival took place this weekend and we headed to old town to take part in the festivities. There were sidewalk sales, kids activities and a horse-drawn carriage ride down Washington Street. We stood in line and were fortunate to be in the front of the carriage where I kept busy shooting frame after frame of this incredible scene. It's not hard to imagine similar horse-drawn carriages traversing Washington Street hundreds of years ago and passing these same sites. I liked this view of Old Town House best of the series.

Keep it Local – The Bus Stop

By Eyal Oren|2014-04-20T14:49:32-04:00September 23rd, 2011|Categories: Keep it Local|Tags: Bus Stop, business, keep it local, Old Town|

It's hard to believe that the Bus Stop has been open and clothing the citizens of Marblehead since 1975. I had just finished running an errand in town and noted that the flowers encircling the entrance had reached full bloom. Ironically, I had to wait 15 minutes for the bus to come and pick up two people waiting out front. It just so happened that the sun decided to peak through the clouds just as the bus pulled away revealing the store and its waving flag.

Washing Ashore at Devereux Beach

By Eyal Oren|2016-11-06T12:06:27-05:00September 22nd, 2011|Categories: Beach|Tags: beach, Devereux Beach, ocean, water|

I went to Devereux beach to explore the Rotary Great Race last weekend and, between activities, explored the beach. It was a beautiful end-of-Summer day and the ocean surf and color almost seemed like the Caribbean. I bent down and tried to angle the incoming surf to serve as a line leading out toward the Neck. The one rock in the foreground was just about to be engulfed by water and I liked this image which captured a bit of that tension leading up to the impending rush of water.

Sun Rays over Devereux Beach

We had an amazing final warm Summer day on Wednesday, Sept 14th so I ventured to Devereux beach with my wife and two kids. I captured images of my kids enjoying the sand and water and then saw an incredible scene developing to the south. I walked down to remove other beach-goers from the view and managed to get the incoming surf and amazing sun rays that erupted over the Goldthwait reservation and surrounding houses.

The Pier on Edgemere Road

By Eyal Oren|2013-06-16T08:31:52-04:00September 20th, 2011|Categories: Beach|Tags: beach, boat, ocean, pier, sunset, water|

Expanding on yesterday's post about seeing out new places at the right time, I ventured down Edgemere Road to explore the private beach at sunset. I had visited this spot once before but did so at low tide which did not lend itself to properly capturing this scene. I returned on a cloudless sunset and viewed the serene scene before me. I opted to shoot toward a nearby pier and was pleased to find a waiting boat illuminated by the light of the setting sun.
