Old Man of the Sea

Posted on 8/27/2010 by Unknown | 0 comments

This guy has been here for 85 years staring out at the Atlantic in somber memorial of all the fisherman who have lost their lives working hard to feed our country.  I'd say he looks pretty good for his age.  Located in Gloucester, MA on Stacy Esplanade, there is a nice memorial to take in.  Enjoy.

Come Sail Away

Waiting and waiting and and anticipating when this sailboat would pass in front of the view near the rocks where I wanted it.  Photo taken just off the coast at Rockport, MA.  Enjoy.

Floral Colors

Not being much of a flower enthusiast, I know very little about species, etc, but I really enjoy taking photos of them. So many great colors, textures, etc. I've quite the collection of flower shots. Nature is pretty cool. Enjoy.

 

Nostalgic Gathering

Posted on 8/19/2010 by Unknown | 0 comments

Believe it or not, this was taken a few weeks ago in Rockport, MA.  These "old" summer basket weave style folding lawn chairs sitting in a semi-circle sitting behind this cottage caught my eye.  It reminded me of when I was a kid and the family would sit outside in the summer and just chat.  Giving it a grainy black and white look just felt right.  Enjoy.

Hilton Head South Dock

During our frequent trips to Hilton Head, we often ate at the Salty Dog.  Famous place, but this one evening the sky was looking very cool during a sunset on the harbor.  Enjoy.

Chrysler Building from the street

Most of the photos you see of the iconic Chrysler Building in New York City are taken from other buildings and high up, but this was a unique opportunity as I caught this beautiful building in sunlight from the shade of nearby buildings.  Enjoy.

Tidal Pool Reflection

Posted on 8/07/2010 by Unknown | 0 comments

While visiting Rockport, MA last weekend, I ventured out over the break water rocks (rock climbing with camera dangling involved) and found this very vibrant algae encrusted tidal pool that made for some nice rock reflections, while capturing a beautiful yacht just off the coast in the background.  I'll have a few more from this location in later posts.  Enjoy!

Moonlit Tropics

Look very close and you'll see the quarter moon up there glowing in the beautiful night in the tropics.  This photo was taken in Aruba at the Hyatt during one of their daily spectacular evenings.  Enjoy.

Elk hamming it up

Don't you stick your tongue out at me.  Like one of my kids, this elk was hamming it up for the photo.  I captured this in Yellowstone while on the way to Old Faithful.  Enjoy.

Sittin on the Dock of the Lake

Medford's upper Mystic Lake was the setting for this beautiful sunset as two friends lazily passed the time away.  Enjoy.

Cool Night on the Mystic

Posted on 7/26/2010 by Unknown | 0 comments

After 3 continuous weeks of 90+ degrees, the humidity has finally dropped and it's supposed to cool down tonight.  I thought I'd post this photo taken off the patio at my office in Medford Square showing a recent snowstorm that left it's fall on the treetops.  This should make you feel cooler.  I'll wait the 4 months till we see the snow again.  Enjoy!

Mt. Moran

I just can't get enough of Wyoming mountains.  This is Mt. Moran as seen from between the trees on a crazy road leading to a lookout on the opposite side of the valley.  I precariously pulled the car to the edge and shot this one.  Enjoy!

Squirreling it away

It won't be long before the squirrel's begin to stock up for the winter.  I took this guy on the top of a ski mountain (during summer) in Teton Village in Jackson, WY.  Enjoy.

Sunrise Glow

Posted on 7/17/2010 by Unknown | 0 comments

This heat wave we're having this summer makes me yearn for those hot and humid days in Hilton Head on our summer vacations.  Oh the humidity!  This is one of those ominous sunrises over Hilton Head, SC that was the prelude to an impending hurricane coming up the coast.  Enjoy.

New York Park

As New York fans mourn the passing of George Steinbrenner, I thought I'd post one of my shots of a cityside view found in Central Park, NYC.  Enjoy.

Another Mystic Lake Sunset

Posted on 7/11/2010 by Unknown | 0 comments

The new improvements the State has made to the Mystic Lake Dam and surrounding area has opened up the views to the lake.  I went to grab this photo the other night as I thought I'd get more color in the sky during a sunset.  This was equally impressive.  Enjoy.

Bridge in NH

Posted on 7/10/2010 by Unknown | 0 comments

This is the bridge where the Russian spies were swapped.  Truth is, I can't remember what town this was in.  I am sure it's in lower NH.  It's a beautiful example of how wooden structure railroad bridges were built.  Enjoy.

Iguana in the Sun

It's so hot out here, I bet this guy would think it's downright cool.  I caught this guy while vacationing in Aruba.  Love the colors.  Enjoy.

Ellis Island

Posted on 7/05/2010 by Unknown | 0 comments

If it weren't for Ellis Island and the immigrants from the early 1900's, our country wouldn't be where it is today.  Most of us owe a great debt to our ancestors who risked their lives to come to this country to make a better life for themselves and their families.  God bless America for making being "proud to be an American" mean something.  Enjoy.

Sky Fireworks

Posted on 7/04/2010 by Unknown | 0 comments

As I sit here posting this hearing lots of fireworks going off around me, I just came back from the upper Mystic Lake in Medford, MA where the sky was putting on a fireworks display of it's own.  The reflection off the lake was phenomenal.  Enjoy.
