Capturing the Sunset and Boston Skyline

At the end of November, I left the house before sunset in hopes of capturing some nice evening light. In the hour of shooting, I would come away with eight images to share. And yet, this is the first one I have posted to the site. I started off capturing some great pink/purple clouds over the harbor and then crossed the causeway as the sun was setting to see if the light might be right for an image from the small (unnamed) park and bench at the start of Marblehead Neck. Before I made it to the park though, I [...]

Marblehead Skyline – A Perfect Morning

On December 17, I headed out of the house before dawn in hopes of capturing the moon setting over the Marblehead skyline. I had missed the chance to photograph the moonrise the night before and was excited about the prediction of clear skies and cold temperatures for the next morning. There was a small chance for sea smoke inside Marblehead Harbor and I could only imagine what that might look like with familiar buildings above a layer of sea smoke with the moon setting above. Sadly, the temperatures weren't cold enough for sea smoke. I did however manage to capture [...]

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 [...]

A View of Boston from Marblehead Neck

This view really never gets old. Though I have photographed it previously under different conditions (most recently with turquoise waters - LINK), I couldn't help but pull over on Ocean Avenue on Marblehead Neck when the clouds began to reflect the light of sunset on this mid-August night. The small beach offered just enough of a foreground element to ground the scene and instruct the viewer that this view of Boston was from Marblehead Neck.

Wednesday in Marblehead – Turquoise Water off Ocean Avenue

For anyone who might be new to the site or who hasn't read the About section, Wednesdays in Marblehead got the name because I typically have the day off work on Wednesdays and had decided in August 2010, to devote that day to shoot the town of Marblehead (whenever conditions allowed). Since then, I have definitely gone out to shoot on other days and share my images every weekday so the name has lost a fair amount of its initial importance. That being said, on Wednesday March 27, the light was so good that I came away with well more [...]

Caught in the Glow of the Setting Sun

So I had the usual long exposure photo planned for today but I just walked in from shoveling a fresh 7" of snow from the driveway and needed to see something much warmer and full of color and life. This past weekend, a coronal mass ejection (CME) occurred on the sun that managed to hit the Earth just right and set off auroras close to home. I missed the Saturday spectacle as it took place at 5am and then decided to head out at sunset to catch the tail end of it. I got to Chandler Hovey a bit early [...]
