06/01/2021 Foggy Valleys and Hills

Posted on June 1, 2021 by Steve Gingold

There wasn’t much evidence of fog during my ride to New Salem this morning. But the NOAA site said there would be some and, sure enough, they were right. Just in the valleys but that allowed for some nice landscape … Continue reading →

Posted on May 3, 2021 by Steve Gingold

I mentioned the other day when sharing the collapsed barn that I would go back, I hoped, to shoot it again with a moody cloudy sky. I was able to do that last Friday as we were having intermittent showers … Continue reading →

Posted on May 2, 2021 by Steve Gingold

One of my favorite trees in the North Quabbin area. I’ve photographed this location several times including autumn which is quite the opposite of this. The feeling this morning was just as reserved as it appears although the camera did … Continue reading →

04.05.2021 Monochrome Monday-Jennison Road

Posted on April 5, 2021 by Steve Gingold

Mountain Laurel branches develop some nice shape. Although dead, I liked the curves combined with the stump. Last year was a downer for Mountain Laurel flowers. The year before was glorious and I am hoping for a rebound this year.

Posted on March 29, 2021 by Steve Gingold

I visited the spot where I usually shoot these yesterday morning. I was hoping for some sign of early spring but nothing doing. It was cold, breezy, overcast, and threatening to rain at any moment. I guess you could say … Continue reading →

02.20.21 Snow-capped in the Middle Branch of the Swift River

Posted on February 20, 2021 by Steve Gingold

More snow from our brief (24 hour) storm yesterday but photographed this morning. The rocks in the river always seem to be good surfaces for falling snow to adhere to and often with a nice skirt of icicles. These are … Continue reading →

Posted on February 20, 2021 by Steve Gingold

Yesterday as I was shooting ice, snow and water at Dean Brook’s Murphy Falls (my name for it after my late beagle and not official) I noticed this abstract. What do you think? Did he drop in to visit me? … Continue reading →
