Frozen Moment at Castle Rock (photo and video)

Today's image comes from the dawn/sunrise photoshoot at Castle Rock on February 19th. I've shared a few other images from this outing but hadn't yet worked on this image with a composition aimed at including the waves coming to shore and reflecting the colors of dawn on this cold morning. Immediately before capturing this image, I had switched the camera to movie mode and recorded 40 seconds of the sounds and feel of watching the dawn from Castle Rock. Click below to watch the video for yourself and see how the final photo and video compare.

Crocker Park and Abbot Hall

I am posting this image of a snow covered Crocker Park and unique composition including Abbot Hall in the hopes that it might ward off the coming storm and keep our streets free of any more white flaky stuff. This winter has been long and cold and really needs to come to an end. Let's see if this works...

Snow Covered Buoys and the Ocean Beyond

This image comes from early February and the morning after a snowstorm. I've shared a few images taken from the end of Bass Rock Lane and have shared one of this buoy covered shed before as well (though in much warmer conditions). I just couldn't pass up the image of snow covered buoys hanging on the side of the shed with the Atlantic Ocean beyond all lit in dawn's early light.

Sand Trap in the Snow – Tedesco Country Club

This has been a long Winter with all too frequent snow storms and plenty of sub-freezing temperatures to go along with them. That being said, there is something incredibly beautiful about a coating of freshly fallen snow. On Saturday, February 15, immediately after dropping off my son at the Tedesco parking lot for the YMCA snowboarding clinic, I headed across the street to capture the view you see before you. Snow had fallen the night before and a nice sunrise was developing as I found this composition near Tedesco Street. I was surprised to see that the sand trap had [...]

The Calm Before the Storm – Greystone Beach

On Saturday, February 15, I woke early to take my son to the YMCA snowboarding lesson and then drove in search of images of the early morning sun reflecting off snow. We already had a good amount of snow on the ground and were due for yet another blizzard that evening. I figured the unsettled air might help bring out a nice sunrise. I began with images of Tedesco's trees and greens covered in snow and then drove off to find good light. As I watched the sky brighten, I decided to head to Greystone beach in the hopes of [...]

Impossibly Beautiful – Fences in the Snow and the Ocean Beyond

Continuing with this week's theme of images captured on the morning of Thursday, February 6 after 10-12 inches of snow fell on Marblehead, we come to this impossibly beautiful scene. After capturing the image at Fort Sewall and then the tree lined street of Glendale Road, I noticed the clouds were lighting up and decided to head to a nearby favorite vantage point. I arrived at Bass Rock Lane to find much of the lane that extends to the Atlantic ocean beyond covered with unmarked snow. I hated to disturb the snow and so I set up a vertical shot [...]

A Canopy of Snow on Glendale Road

I have wanted to capture the classic New England scene of a canopy of trees contrasted with fresh fallen snow for years now. I had spotted this great tree lined street only blocks from my house on Glendale Road several years ago but the conditions hadn't come together until the snowfall of February 5th. As I mentioned in yesterday's post, the snow was falling too heavily during the day to properly capture these scenes and so I had gone out early the morning of Thursday, February 6. I started off at Fort Sewall and was coming home when I glanced [...]

Winter comes to Summer Street

I haven't yet had a chance to photograph the after effects of the 10-12 inches of snow that fell on Wednesday, February 5 but this image was taken almost exactly one year ago on February 9, 2013. We had a lot more snow one year ago and I headed out when the driving ban had finally lifted to explore the streets of Marblehead covered in snow. As I walked down Washington Street, I looked up Summer Street and saw the light of the sunset reflecting off the houses that neighbor St. Michael's Episcopal Church. I walked up the hill and [...]

Snow in Marblehead – Lobster Traps at Sunset

One last image of snow for this week and one more from the Blizzard of 2013 (aka Nemo). When all was said and done, Nemo had left us with over 2 feet of snow to dig out of. However, one of the small rewards of these massive storms is that you are almost guaranteed a beautiful sunset when they finally depart. Such was the case with this nor'easter and I headed across the causeway and onto Ocean Avenue to capture this view of incredible color as the storm ended. As you can see from the waves in the Atlantic and [...]

Snow in Marblehead – Washington Street

Remember Nemo? The nor'easter also known as the Blizzard of 2013 pummeled us with over two feet of snow in February of this year. While the snow was an absolute pain to dig out of, it did end up making for some unique images. This image looking down Washington Street gives a sense of the incredible amount of snow that fell during the course of the blizzard. The gallery below includes other images taken on the same day in February 2013.
