THE FAMILY TRUCKSTER!!!!! What, not what you were expecting? Yeah, us neither….. ha! Well, the unfortunate issues in Japan pushed our schedule for getting the new car up a bit. Jess skied with a subaru dealer last weekend and he told her about what was going on there car production wise (all foresters are made […]

I’ve done these a few times in the past, but figured I was due for an update since I hadn’t shared anything from my phone (beyond facebook) since our trip to Antigua in March… Speaking of facebook, check out the “social media” tab at the top for links to my facebook, twitter and flickr! Enjoy. […]

I didn’t get to my shots from Beavertail last week (admittedly they’re a bit flat thanks to the fog/spray) so today you’re getting hit with a double post. Today I went down to Sakonnet with Dave from the forum. We had a great time shooting even though we didn’t get much color. Last weekend was a […]

No kid #2 yet… We’re all patiently waiting. Elias said she’d come today (Sunday) but I guess he was wrong on that count… The due date is still over a week away… But at our last checkup Nikki was 2cm dilated and 80% effaced so we were thinking we’d be close, but that was thursday and it’s now Sunday […]

Well Elias is officially three now. He’s also officially potty trained, he made it by about a week which has been awesome for us. I guess no diapers in the house for 2~3 weeks before we start all over again? Elias got spoiled rotten at his party, then we saved a few gifts for him […]

Went back to Gooseberry again this weekend for the second weekend in a row and my third trip out there this year. It’s a very interesting beach with a nice variety of rocks/sand/boulder, but it’s also somewhat protected from the massive rollers we get in RI (for better or worse). A few of the guys […]

Yeah yeah, his birthday is Wednesday, I know, but his PARTY was Sunday!!! I can’t believe how fast time flies, he’s 3 already? Wow. He’s also pooping on the potty pretty much all the time now (since last week, no accidents!) which is awesome. We also got to meet the Stockwell’s new baby Cody Sunday […]

I made it out to gooseberry again this morning. I’m really starting to like this place as there’s a great mix of sand with small rocks and boulders. It’s also got beach on both east south and west shores so I’ve found good wave action somewhere each time I’ve been here and I’ve also been […]

Andy and I made it out to Enders Falls Saturday AM. It was fun to see the place covered in snow and ice, but the snow was pretty dirty making clean compositions impossible. We also couldn’t cross the stream to where the better views are as the snow was hiding where the rocks were making […]

Well, potty training is coming along a lot better now. Elias has gone twice in the last week which is a big improvement. I also got to go skiing at Okemo on Sunday where it was windy and freezing but the snow was quite good. Great Harvest also opened in town to we got to […]

Filters are one of my most used tools in my kit. After the obvious camera, lens and tripod I use for my landscapes, my filters are always the next pieces out of my bag (followed by my remote). I prefer to capture my images as best as possible in camera to avoid as much processing […]

Went to New Hampshire with some friends this weekend and I was able to get away to shoot a bit Saturday afternoon. I headed to Franconia notch, specifically the basin to scout and shoot some places I’d been stalking online for quite a while now. It ended up being a good spot and the light […]
