I don't know. Maybe it's the waves that draw me in... Or maybe it's the beautiful South County beaches with soft sands and rocks that glow in the golden light of the setting sun. Whatever it is, I love Rhode Island.
Pink Streaks at Daybreak
This image was captured at one of my favorite places for sunrises - the Point Judith Lighthouse in Narragansett, Rhode Island.
Restoration of Soul
This image was the most recent capture at a favorite spot of mine in South Kingstown, Rhode Island. I love how the glow of the setting sun lights up the wave line on this beach. As I was capturing this shot, the waves were plummeting me. And I couldn't have been happier to be drenched - photographing wave patterns using a slight long exposure such as 8/10 of a second to one second is incredibly therapeutic.

The first image of this series was taken at the little-known Campbell Falls in New Marlborough, Massachusetts; the second image was captured at Macedonia Gorge cascades in Macedonia Brook State Park near Kent, Connecticut; and the third image was captured at Moss Glen Falls in Granville, Vermont. Happy Summertime Shooting!!
What better way to photograph Spring blossoms than with a new Lensbaby Velvet 56? This lens is the newest release from Lensbaby. Needless to say, I'm thrilled! I will admit, this lens is different from any other Lensbaby product. It does take some to get used to. However what this lens renders is truly velvety background blur when used wide open - hence the name. Here is a star magnolia and a dahlia shot while using the Lensbaby Velvet 56.
Enjoy, and happy Shooting!!

The attached image was of a two-toned bouquet of mums, the middle one being the lightest in color. A Lensbaby soft-focus optic was used. The image was processed in monochrome.
