I am very behind on posting state capitol photos. I visited Hartford, Connecticut in April 2017. I procrastinated. I
moved across the country. Now I have finally posted them. Enjoy!
Michelle and I spent Patriot’s Day 2017—it’s a Massachusetts thing—traveling to Providence, Rhode Island and Hartford, Connecticut to visit the state capitols there. I’m excited to present the Rhode Island photos, especially those of the rotunda! The rotunda photos are both HDR, and do a wonderful job of showing the...
I ended 2014 and began 2015 continuing to visit state capitols and whittle down my bucket list. While visiting Dallas for Christmas I made a visit to Little Rock, Arkansas to tour and photograph the capitol. I was quite impressed by the white marble of the interior and the huge...
My quest to photograph and tour all 50 state capitols continues. This week I started with New Hampshire and Maine (which is not yet edited). While New Hampshire may hold title of the oldest congress, it is also home to the smallest capitol I have ever visited. There are only...
Four years ago I visited Wareham, MA to attend the annual Cranberry Harvest Celebration. Far too many photos, and a few videos can be seen here. This year, I returned after a four year hiatus (because I forgot the event existed). I, and my friends, had an amazing time. The...
Here are a few shots from tonight’s July 4th Boston Pops Fireworks Spectacular. For those wondering, I shot with a Promaster variable neutral density (ND) filter. This allowed for long exposures (6-25s) with wide apertures (f/4-5.6). Since the filter is variable and the show only lasted a half hour, I...
This afternoon MIT and Harvard had an amazing snowball fight at Cambridge Public Library. I ended up joining the fight, so most of the photos below were snappped by my friend Michelle.
Early this morning I set out to capture the Leonids meteor shower. As is the case with most solar events, I learned about the meteor shower late the day before. (At least it wasn’t the day after!) The shower was supposed to peak from about midnight until 3 or 4...
It only took me two and a half months, but I finally finished editing photos from Red Bull Cliff Diving. Why the delay? I simply got busy with other aspects of my life and never had the time to sit down and composite the shots as I envisioned: composites showing...
Rochelle and I visited Mt. Moosilauke along with some of her co-workers from General Mills. We spent Saturday night at Dartmouth’s Ravine Lodge–which, by the way, has excellent food–before setting off on our 9.5 mile hike Sunday morning. The last mile or so was a bit painful for me due...
I visited Rhode Island for the first time on Saturday. A friend from MIT, Toyya, was camping at
Burlingame State Park and I joined her and others
for the day, hanging out at the beach.
I visited the USS John F. Kennedy on Saturday. “Big John,” as its called, is one of the last non-nuclear aircraft carriers to be decommissioned. It sailed into Boston as part of its farewell tour. I knew aircraft carriers were big, but I never knew how big. Big John can...
