Solo Twin

Ben Steinberg and I decided to try the solo twin in avalanche IV this year. We had a wonderful start and then sailed into the mother of all holes and watched the fleet sail away from us… From there we stuck with it and had a great long sail out around Block Island, over the […]

Presidential Traverse

15 Aug ’15 by Ben

Dave Simms and I made it up to NH back in late June. Dave was getting ready for a bigger trip and I’ve always wanted to do the presidential traverse. Our original plan was to do Mount Washington and maybe add on a few more miles if the weather allowed. We did our now typical […]

Beavertail Sunset August 6th 2015

6 Aug ’15 by Ben

Made it out to Beavertail tonight. The clouds looked promising after dinner so I loaded up and headed out. On the drive out it looked like almost a complete bust… I’d checked the tide and knew it was low and I also knew there was a pretty big swell running so I headed towards my […]

Goat Island Lighthouse

13 Jun ’15 by Ben

Needed to do a quick gas and grocery run after dinner tonight so I opted to go over the bridge and bring the camera along… Mother Nature did her thing and I was able to get down to the Goat Island Causeway and get a few good shots of the Goat Island Light with the (Claiborne […]

Beavertail Sunset 5.21.2015

24 May ’15 by Ben

Sitting at the house Thursday night I saw some dramatic clouds rolling in at sunset. I grabbed my kit and ran out the door and headed to Beavertail. I’ve been exploring the shoreline there for the last year or so looking for some fun non lighthouse locations and I’ve got a few I’m really enjoying […]

Castle Hill Sunset 5.6.2015

7 May ’15 by Ben

Went out to Castle Hill to watch the volvo boats come in last night. They were due around sunset but the wind was dying fast so I figured I’d go somewhere photogenic while waiting. Castle hill also has an added benefit of being able to see out to sea -vs- a much shorter view from […]

Fort Wetherill April 2015

26 Apr ’15 by Ben

Made it out to Fort Wetherill for the first sunrise in a long time (ski season took over this winter in a great way!). Explored a new spot as well which is always fun. Sunrise was a bit of a bust with no clouds on the horizon but it was great to get out […]

Catching up on the blog again… I was behind and then I had/got to travel for work and fun on several weekends in a row and then the hard drive on the computer went down (didn’t lose anything important but I had to take 2 weeks to get everything running again)… So yeah, I’m finally […]

How To Replace the SSD on a 2011 iMac:

23 Apr ’15 by Ben

The SSD on my iMac crashed a few weeks ago now. The iMac originally came with a 256gb SSD and a 1TB internal HD for storage as well. This post is NOT about “adding” an SSD to a machine without one. This post IS about replacing your SSD if it goes bad… There are […]

4234′

20 Apr ’15 by Ben

Four two three four… What’s that? That’s how much vertical I was able to ski in one run Saturday. It’s also my personal record for single longest run ever for me, including when I lived out west. I was able to get up north for one last weekend of skiing with David Simms and David […]

January Update!

3 Mar ’15 by Ben

It’s fun to look back at these pictures from January a month later… The last few pictures in this set are from our first snow or the “blizzard”. It seemed like a lot of snow then… But it’s a month later, it’s all still here, and it’s BURIED under about another foot or so of […]

2014 Recap

31 Dec ’14 by Ben

Every year I sit down and make a “best of” post for my photography for the year. It’s been a great year and I’ve got a TON of images to choose from this year. Actually, I couldn’t narrow it down to just 12 so I’ve got a gallery at the bottom with ALL the highlight, […]
