Inside the tower - Click for a larger view.
I had the pleasure to go out to a water tower that is being built in Marshfield MA and spend the afternoon shooting pix of the process for VIBCO.  We were there consulting and I got several great shots.  Love this one - looking upward  in the central column of the tower.. I climbed the ladder you see here, wearing a climbing harness of course, and got stuck for a minute going through that narrow place. (gotta loose a couple more pounds) This is a three exposure handheld HDR shot and I know I overcooked it a bit. . . and here are some of the guys who I shot while on top of the tower. These guys are from all over and travel the country making water towers - they are off to Texas once they finish this job.

Pawtuxet Athletic Club - Click for larger image
Taken from the back of my boat in Pawtuxet Cove through a dense fog. It is always so peaceful when the fog rolls into the cove and softens the edges on things and muffles the sounds. This was shot last Friday night about 10:00 just before I turned in.  It is a three exposure HDR image shot without a tripod and from the boat.

In the Tunnel - click for larger image
Had a great morning today - got up at 3:00 in the AM and drove down to NYC to visit a tunnel project for VIBCO and take some pictures.  Got a few good shots and may go back next week for more. This view is looking back toward the entrance of the tunnel where you access it via elevator. Easy ride, little traffic but really muddy when I got there.

Springtime at Mystic Seaport

We spent Saturday at the Mystic Seaport in Mystic, CT and had a great time as always. It was a bit overcast with some fog moving around I got several good shots in and around the seaport.

Shipsmith Shop, Mystic Seaport - Click image for larger view

The Shipsmith shop is always a photographic treat - I took many shots here. The textures are so rich and lend themselves nicely to HDR photography.

Mystic River from the seaport - Click for larger image
There was little traffic on the river today, still a bit early in the spring. Hopefully we will get a cruise to Mystic this summer - it would make a great weekend as there is always so much to do at the seaport.

Long Lake, Harrison, Maine

Long Lake, Harrison, Maine 
I was fortunate enough to travel to Main this week on business and this was my final location.  I was filming some concrete work up the hill in the garage of the house in this panorama. I  took a few minutes to walk down to the water's edge and got this shot. What a spectacular view.

Haynes Park Boat Ramp

Haynes Park Boat Ramp - Click image to view panorama
A sunset shot on the equinox of the boat ramp in Haynes Park in East Providence. I was out shooting various sites for the World Wide Panorama group (that I participate in at each solstice and equinox) and this gentleman showed up and started feeding the gulls.... made for a much better shot. The theme this time was "paths" and I am guessing that this boat ramp is a path to the sea - it leads from here to the rest of the world.

Polo and Lamb

Dinner - Click image to view 360º panorama
The panorama posted above is of the wonderful dinner party we had at Bob's after a very windy afternoon on the beach watching polo. About a dozen or so of us gathered to watch polo and chat well into the evening. Thanks Bob for the best lamb, ever.
Here are a few shots of the horses on the beach.

Ben promises to teach me how to levitate like this some day but he says I need to loose some weight first.
