after the sunrise this morning Dave and I headed down to PJ and sat on the rocks and took some surf shots. Had a blast watching these guys. The Coasties were out burning some tax payer’s fuel as well “training” in the seas. Some of the crash shots might actually be my best shots […]

Earl blew through last night. Dave and I decided to go down to Hazard this morning for the sunrise and see what kind of trouble we could get into. All cameras survived and I only got my boots and pants wet! Had a great time shooting with some impressive waves then we went to PJ […]

A slow week photographically for me this week. Monday’s I sail, so that usually kills that day, then the rest of the week I just felt really run down for some reason. Not sure why. This weekend was fun though, GiGi and PopPop took Elias Saturday night so we could go to Nikki’s 15th HS […]

Made it out to Sachuest yesterday morning again. I know you guys are probably sick of this place, but I love it for some reason. Whenever I don’t know where I should go, I go here as there’s so much variety to experiment with. It’s also got some decent wildlife options which is great and […]

Went down to Beavertail Sunday morning. I actually didn’t even see the sun rise over the horizon for this sunrise as I wanted to explore the western side of the point. There’s a bay there that gives you a really nice look at the lighthouse I’ve always wanted to shoot and it turned out to […]

This weekend was a bit of a slow weekend. Nikki didn’t feel well either day, so we didn’t do much. Saturday we went to the Fool’s Rules regatta in Jamestown with Elias and watched them build the boats. It’s always fun to guess what will work and what doesn’t, then watch them break! There were […]

Went down to Sachuest again this morning. The clouds rolled in just in time for the sunrise and left shortly after. It was pretty much perfect as there was just enough breeze to keep the mosquitos off.

Edit: this post was done before I’d had the bag for long. I’ve since done a video review of this bag that’s more in depth. Check that out here. The video is also the header image you see above, click that and you’ll be able to watch the review here. Thinktank announced the retrospective line […]

I converted my 10-22mm to be able to be used on FF over the weekend. I wouldn’t call it a full conversion as it’s NOT and EF lens, and you CAN damage your FF camera (and possibly 1.3) if you’re not careful, so proceed at your own risk… But, taking canon’s rear baffle out and […]

Went down to Hazard Ave again this morning. Decent morning but lots of fishermen… Someone decided to scale a fish right in “the spot”, and not only that they smoked about 5 cigarettes while doing it leaving all the butts behind. I guess fishermen don’t respect the sea/environment the way I do but it’d frustrating […]

Busy weekend this week. Jed & Stephanie got married Friday night in MA. It was a great ceremony and the reception was a great time. Lots of family to catch up with as well. It was fun seeing everyone all cleaned up. My parents baby sat Elias at our house Friday night so we could […]

It’s been another fun week in the Jacobsen house. I didn’t realize there wasn’t sailing Monday night so we all went down to my parents house for Dinner. That was great. Elias has been working on his potty training all week with some success, but Nikki really made progress with him Saturday while I was […]

Just got back from Limerock shooting ALMS. Wow. WOW! Loved it. It’s a bit of a drive (3 hours each way) and a long day on your feet, but it’s soooooo worth it if you’re a car guy. Seeing these things up close is amazing, then seeing them race is just incredible. VERY loud, […]
