Old Town House

Old Town House Draped in Falls Best

I had my eye on this tree for weeks and kept waiting for it to finally reveal its full color.  It cooperated very well by doing so on the first Wednesday in November.  I tried to set up for this shot but had a car parked directly in front that obstructed my view.  Just as I was about to give up, the car took off and I managed to snap this image during a short break in traffic.  Enjoy another scene of Fall as the weather holds out against the coming Winter for at least a bit longer. Don't forget [...]

A Horse-Drawn Carriage Ride Through Town

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.

Only one week left until the overnight parking ban is lifted and the parked cars return.  I'm convinced a photographer came up with the ban that extends from the end-of-Fall until early-Spring!  It's a wonder to walk these streets in the early morning hours and explore them before the town stirs.  On this morning, I walked the length of Washington street to the Old North Church and wandered up and down State and Pleasant streets.  Here are the first two images of Old Town House from that walk.  The morning light was absolutely perfect on this particular day and turned [...]

Old Town House

The parking ban went into effect over the Thanksgiving weekend and I took advantage of the empty streets early Tuesday morning to shoot the Old Town House.  I'm sure this building has been photographed thousands of times and I sought to add a slightly different perspective.  I love how the house stands on its own in its brilliant yellow coat.  The wreaths on the door add a nice festive touch. Technical: Canon 50D and EF-S 10-22 lens.  6 bracket exposure.
