Week 28 - Back Bay PhotoWalk

Last weekend Karen and I went on a PhotoWalk tour of the Back Bay.  This was a Christmas gift (actually, a Groupon) - a guided photography tour, 90 minutes, at a particular region of Boston.  It actually was very informative and a lot of fun.  One photo made my photo of the day, and I also included a bonus photo for that day below.  Check out my photo album of the day here: https://picasaweb.google.com/113659247702852198367/BackBayWalk?authkey=Gv1sRgCKzKwqfD8tazGg#

Week 27 - Fall Colors

Fall is in full swing in Massachusetts, at least in the Merrimack Valley.  There's lots of colorful trees, leaves falling, and most importantly, some mostly great weather.  I'm dreading the dark winter soon to come, where I take daily "snow" photos.  I'm already trying to think of ideas for dead of winter photos...

Here's this week's photos, and the week isn't even finished yet.  Yup, I wasn't on Martha's Vineyard this weekend...

Week 26 - First Half/Back to Work

Well, I've got 26 of the 52 weeks completed.  It's a transition week for me - I've started a new and exciting job, one that will leave me even less time to take photos.  Also, the days are much shorter, so less natural light for photos.  For both of these reasons, it's going to be a challenge getting good photos the next 6 months - but I'll try!


Here's this week's crop of photos:

Week 25 - Martha's Vineyard

Got to spend almost a full week on Martha's Vineyard before I start my new job.  The weather was Summer-like - truly amazing.  The fishing was fair, mainly False Albacore, but with such gorgeous weather, it was quite a relaxing week.  I stumble upon famous photographer Alison Shaw during a dawn photo shoot she was doing for a book cover.  Great to finally meet her (she's an extremely nice person) and also great to see her work.

Week 24 - A Vacation of Sunrises and Sunsets

I spent the last week on Martha's Vineyard, on vacation, fishing the Martha's Vineyard Striped Bass and Bluefish Derby pretty hard.  I fished early morning, and in the evening, often napping mid-day.  Now that is what I call a vacation!
