Woohoo!

One of the pieces I submitted to the Wickford Arts Association call for entries "Anything Goes" was accepted. The exhibit started Sunday, and will be up until July 13th. Stop by the gallery and see all of the beautiful pieces.

I'm also in the process of getting ready for the Wickford Art Festival coming up July 10 & 11. I have a lot of new pieces this year, and I'm very excited to debut my new canvas prints. Stop by and visit me - I'm in booth 206, which is in the Greenway off of Main St. 10% discount to anyone who mentions this post!

Father's Day in Maine

We headed up to see my family in Maine to celebrate father's day. My parents have a fabulous plot of land, and I'm always finding something new to shoot.

Sights of Providence

Last night I headed down to Providence with the Wickford Photo Group to do some shooting. I wandered around for about an hour and here's what I came up with. I was a little tired, so a little unmotivated (sad excuse i know).

If you're interested in joining the photo group, it's a fun bunch of people. We meet the second and fourth monday of the month. A lot of different topics are discussed at a lot of different skill levels - everyone's welcome. Friendly photo contests every month. For more info, go to http://www.wickfordart.org/photoguild.htm

Rockport, MA

This weekend, I headed out to Rockport, MA. I had never been out there before and was told that I would love it, and I did :) The weather wasn't exactly what I was hoping for, but I got some amazing shots. The fog was very thick, preventing us from going on a whale watch, but that just gave us more time to get out and explore.

I'm just starting to play with rolling the zoom lens while shooting on slower shutter speeds. Below, you can see some of my experimental shots. They kind of make me motion sick, but I like them!

Prior to going I read "The Perfect Storm". It definitely helped me get perspective and some history of the area. The fishing world is an amazing culture.

Sadly, I think one of my compact flash cards died. Now to get the last remaining shots off the card. Ugh!
