Winter Aerials

Some days I just don't feel like swimming.  Some days I don't feel like shooting with a 7lb telephoto setup on the beach.  Those days are perfectly suited for drone shots, should the wind be accommodating enough.   I've only had a couple drone flights this winter, one during a sunny but cold morning at the beach, and a second during a slightly windier day at Point Judith lighthouse. It's always a refreshing perspective! Prints available in the Aerial Collection

Sunset at the Point

I haven't been in the water for sunset in a while.  But the opportunity finally presented itself a couple weeks ago.  The sky was clear for once, there was a bump of swell in the water but apparently no one really deemed it worthwhile because the lineup was empty.  Fellow photographer friend Gus Potter grabbed his board instead of a camera, and the two of us hopped in with only half an hour or so before sunset to catch a few with the one other soul already in the water.   It was a little windy and wonky, and certainly cold, but it was one of my favorite sessions this month.  You just can't beat that dusky light!

The potrability factor was something I desperately wanted, but I figured the second generation would have better image quality and would...

We arrived with plenty of time before sunset, and after a quick judgement call regarding...

Foggy Point Judith - Black & White Conversion

Fifty degree weather in the middle of January tends to lead to foggy situations. I decided to venture out early one morning to see if I could catch some sea smoke with a great sunrise, but instead I was greeted with the thickest fog I had seen in quite a long time. I went all the way down to Point Judith's Fisherman's Memorial Park where I knew I could capture some foggy seascapes. A large boulder...
