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

First up was this shot looking across the harbor at Grace Community Church and St. Michael's Steeple poking out [...]

Buoys at Sunset

As New Years day came to a close, my son and I went out to capture images of the first sunset of 2016.  The sun was threatening to disappear behind the building clouds so we headed to Bass Rock Lane first and I shot a few images from the rocky edge. As we walked back to the car, I spotted this familiar scene and set about to capture the colorful buoys on a small shed with the light of sunset seen in the sky and reflected in the window while a small patch of grass danced in the wind.

Causeway Sunset

New Years Day was a busy one with an outing at dawn to shoot the start of the new year and another at sunset to chase some clouds.  For the sunset shoot, I had my son in tow and noticed great light developing as we neared Marblehead and approached sunset.  I quickly ran into the house for my camera and out we went to chase the light. The first stop was Bass Rocks Lane (picture maybe next week) but after that I ended up on the causeway while he hung out at Devereux.  I shot towards Marblehead Neck but then turned [...]

Sunset Reflection to Welcome the New Year – First Sunset of 2016

New Years Day ended up being quite busy with a morning outing to capture the sunrise and an invitation for my son and I to go roller skating with several other families from Marblehead in the afternoon.  As we returned from that outing, I noted the sun breaking through clouds and some great light hitting the ocean.  I convinced my son to come out with me to capture the first sunset of 2016 and we were off. Our first stop was Bass Rock Lane which is very close to the house and offered the best chance for a shot of the light [...]

The Glowing Waters of Marblehead Harbor

I drove across the causeway on Sunday and was delighted to see frostbite sailing underway but depressed by the absence of boats in the harbor.  Between that, the too-early sunsets and the raw cold day Saturday, I was in the mood for a warm image to start this week. This image comes from July 16, 2013 and a boat ride through Marblehead Harbor.  For those boaters out there with moorings in Marblehead Harbor, I'm sure I don't have to tell you just how amazing of a harbor we have in this town.  There are literally hundreds of good angles and [...]

Warm Summer Sunset over Marblehead Harbor

This week has felt much more like the end of Summer than late Fall.  I haven't been able to motivate to shoot Marblehead Harbor now mostly emptied of boats on these warm Fall days and so I looked in the archive for a better representation of this perfect weather. The image was taken on August 18th and, as you can see, the harbor was filled with boats.  There's nothing better than enjoying a warm Summer sunset over Marblehead Harbor.
