  • A few sunset photos from a night at Hen’s Cove

    The other night we had one of those rare nights where the water looks like a mirror. I took the opportunity to shoot a few frames at Hen’s Cove in Bourne MA. I am also continuing my trials with HDR (high dynamic range) photography. The second two shots here are each made from 3 individual […]

  • A few photos from tonight’s walk around Patuisset

    Here are a few photos from tonight’s walk around the island. I am truly grateful to have this as my backyard.

  • A couple nights of long exposures

    It’s been awhile since I shot any long exposure night stuff. I don’t know why I don’t do this more often because I always love to look at them and see how the world looks when you suck every bit of light you can out of it. These were all taken  after sunset with exposures […]

  • Great Egret

    While driving from one assignment to another this afternoon I spotted this Great White Egret fishing off of Patuisset Island in Bourne MA. These birds are generally very skittish so often times when they are close enough to get good photos of they fly way as soon as you start shooting. Today however the shutter […]

  • Hen’s Cove Great Blue Heron

    Stumbled across this Great Blue Heron on in Hen’s Cove this morning. He hung around just long enough for me to get the 300 and the 2x converter out of the trunk and put together, I guess it pays to carry all of your equipment in your trunk. More images after the jump…

  • First Night Shooting Sailing With The Outex Waterproof Housing

    Here are a few of the photos from the first night with the Outex waterproof housing. I have been wanting to try to get shots like these for a long time and as I expected they are kind of hit or miss. For these shots I set myself up on the swim platform of the […]

  • The H12 (Herreshoff 12)

    This was my first chance to shoot the Herreshoff 12 and what a cool little boat it is. The race started down wind from between Wing’s Neck and Scraggy Neck then continued around Bassett’s Island and back out the start line. Shooting the fleet as they worked their way through the channel on a busy […]

  • Stuart Knockabout Nationals 7/20/13

    On July 20th I was fortunate to shoot the Stuart Knockabout Nationals as they sailed in 20+ knots of breeze between Wings Neck and Scraggy Neck here in Cataumet MA. With the 4+ foot swells there was a lot of bailing going on around the course but these Herreshoff designed boats didn’t seem to mind […]
