Rainbows and Storm Clouds

On Tuesday, May 12th, I decided to play hooky from a meeting that promised to be both boring and less than useful by heading to Devereux Beach. There wasn't anything interesting predicted for sunset but, when I arrived at Devereux, I found impressive clouds with great structure extending up from the horizon. As I waited for the clouds to build and for the sun to drop lower in the sky, I set up for a panorama along the causeway that would end up as a more than 87 megapixel image when all was said and done (I'll share that later in the [...]

Cold Water and Warm Sunsets

While this image was captured in December 2014, you would be hard pressed to differentiate the view from one in Summer. We had a fairly mild start to what would turn into a record-breaking Winter and I had gone out on this evening to photograph at Devereux Beach. The cold water got me a few times as I set up to capture this warm December sunset looking out over Marblehead Neck.

Marblehead’s Coastline from Castle Rock

Continuing with Day 4 of the exploration of Castle Rock on a Wednesday afternoon in January. After capturing the image of the beach at Castle Rock, I climbed back up the stairs and walked to my left to view the expansive Atlantic Ocean and the homes along Marblehead's coastline. The clouds did wonders for this scene and added a strong element to break up the negative space of the sky. You can make out Tinker's island in the distance as well as a cargo ship making its way along the shipping lines.

Golden Light on Devereux Beach

Back to Saturday night's outing with my son for this image of golden light on Devereux Beach. This was the sight that awaited me as we pulled into the nearly empty lot at Devereux Beach on December 13. I quickly headed down to the water's edge where I set up this composition and shot as wave after wave came to shore. At this point the sun had just dipped behind the distant houses and the clouds above took on a golden glow that reflected on the waters of the Atlantic Ocean.

A Picture Perfect Sunset

On Saturday evening, I picked up me son from a playdate and noted the cloud cover as we drove home. The day had brought with it a break from the dull gray skies that had covered Marblehead for what seemed like weeks and the clouds now seemed to be breaking up in time for sunset. As we approached the house, I told him we were going to take a quick detour to Devereux Beach to see if I was right about the coming sunset. I grabbed the camera bag and tripod, he grabbed a toy assault rifle and we were [...]

Striking Sunset from Bass Rock Lane

This image from the rocks at the end of Bass Rock Lane was captured in mid-October. I had gone out with some ideas in mind for this shoot and had also brought along my new iPhone 6 to try out its time-lapse mode. I set up the phone and proceeded to scamper around the rocks looking for strong compositions including this one with the setting sun and houses along the Atlantic Ocean. I shared the time-lapse that evening but hadn't had a chance to share this image until today.

Setting Sun over Devereux Beach

On Wednesday, November 12, Spring-like weather replaced the freezing cold with temperatures hitting the high-50s. I decided to head down to Devereux Beach at sunset and see if the conditions might make for a nice sunset. Before the sun set (an image I posted shortly after I captured it), I was treated to this view of a large sun whose light was diffused by haze. I set the exposure and aperture such that the sun would become a large and bright ball in the evening sky and timed this image to capture the soft waves coming to shore.

Running to Shore at Devereux Beach

Back to Tuesday, September 9th for this image to finish off the week. I had gone out to shoot the sunset during an astronomically low tide in early September. Before the sky exploded in color, I had spotted a few kids running in and out of the water on what was a very warm evening. I captured this frame as the boy was in mid-stride running to shore at Devereux Beach. Felt like a good image to share as the days get shorter and colder. Enjoy the weekend!

Low Tide in Marblehead – Smooth Sand at Devereux Beach

The series of six images captured during an incredibly low tide in Marblehead comes to a close with this final shot. I was in awe of the smooth sand at Devereux Beach that resulted from the astronomically low tide (-1.5 feet). After capturing the pink sky in the other direction, I turned toward the setting sun and the beautiful light that still glowed strong in the early evening. With the rocks in the foreground, the smooth ocean water and scattered clouds reflecting the sun's last light, I couldn't ask for much more for this week's finale. I have a few [...]

Low Tide in Marblehead – Pink Sky over Devereux Beach

The sky was erupting in pink at this point so, as soon as I finished capturing yesterday's image (had to wait for a break in traffic), I turned my attention back to Devereux Beach. The smooth sand and water were doing wonders at reflecting the pink sky over Devereux Beach and I found this composition perfectly captured the feel of awe and wonder I felt standing on the causeway. I bet most 'Headers would be hard pressed to identify this sandy beach as Devereux (though the houses along the Neck in the distance give it away). It's so refreshing to [...]
