Wednesday Night Sailing Draws to a Close

August 28, 2012

We've been pretty lucky all summer with regards to weather.  Overall it's been dry and comfortably warm.  I'm having a hard time recalling any nights it was too hot to get to sleep, or too many days it was blisteringly hot.  We've had strings of thunderstorms, true, but still I would say it's been really dry (as I think back to the wettest summer on record a few years back).

Wednesday Night Racing has continued on, as all other summer events came to an end.  But now, it is also Wed Night Racing's turn to call it a day, or rather, a season.  Here's a collection of photos from the last few nights of sailing I attended!  A steady sea breeze one night, and light air resulting in race abandonment another.  Still great fun, great friends and family, and of course dinners by the water!  Enjoy!

My schedule will be getting considerably lighter compared to June-August, but I will most certainly be shooting on or by the water as the days cool down and winter comes around!  As always, be sure to visit my website to see all photos from WYC Wed Night Racing 2012, and follow all of my photo news through Facebook, Twitter, and now my monthly newsletter

See all you boats next summer!

I had been eagerly awaiting this winter season.  Here in New England, the winter months can be rather frigid, but for those of us who don’t mind the exhaustive work of climbing into 6 mil wetsuits or ice-cream-headache cold waters, it’s the eagerly anticipated winter months that bring the biggest swells.  We had snow before the New Year and water temps quickly started approaching 40°F.  But in typical fashion, as soon as the long awaited winter months arrived, I was craving a break from the cold gray in favor of a warm water reprieve.

Board Portraits // Experiments
Board Portraits // Experiments

I've been wanting to shoot more portraits lately, but in combination with the surf community that I've been so involved with the past year.  My good friend, Kevin Tanner, behind Soudnings Surf Co creates some gorgeous handcrafted boards.  He does all his own shaping, resin work, and glassing, and I wanted to photograph some beautiful boards to highlight his craftsmanship as well as portraits of my friends who ride them.  I decided to do board portraits.

A lot of us enjoy the warm weather, but a select few of us still enjoy (or perhaps tolerate) the cold weather.  And nothing quite says winter like a fresh snowfall!  On the rare occasion Rhode Island experiences more than one inch of snow while there's swell in the water, you can find a select few of dedicated riders on the shore eager to have a snow session.
