11.05.2022 Drama from the Archives

Posted on November 5, 2022 by Steve Gingold

Trolling through the memories I found this shot not previously processed from a dramatic morning on Mount Pollux. Not sure why I never did anything with it but better late than never. And it’s always nice to find a little … Continue reading →

12.26.2020 Stillness on Saturday

Posted on December 26, 2020 by Steve Gingold

I hope everyone enjoyed the holiday yesterday. We had a quiet day at home staying dry while we received about 2″ of rain. If it had been snow we would have been blizzarded. Should be some nice waterflow out there … Continue reading →

Posted on June 9, 2020 by Steve Gingold

Before wandering around in the swamp yesterday, I drove down Southeast Street to see if there was fog in the lowlands. There was. I parked by what has been known as Thistlebloom Farm, formerly aka Madwoman Farm, and made a … Continue reading →

02.09.2020 Dean Brook with Starburst

Posted on February 9, 2020 by Steve Gingold

Reworked a summer image from a few years back. This didn’t require too much, just a few tweaks and a bit of perspective straightening. While in college, several friends and I would come to “The Cascades” for some time when … Continue reading →

01.03.2019 The Illuminated Crystal Landscape

Posted on January 3, 2020 by Steve Gingold

After shooting the ice coated tree yesterday, I waited as the sun broke the horizon behind the trees hoping for a nice starburst. Rather than the 16-35 I usually use for that, I mounted the 50mm Zeiss and got a … Continue reading →

Wish we were still there. One week doesn’t come close to exploring this great park. Next time I’ll spend more time in the woods.

08.06.2018 Sunrise Surprise

Posted on August 6, 2018 by Steve Gingold

Pretty thick fog in the neighborhood and all the way to New Salem I could see the fog rolling up the windshield as the aerodynamics of a moving vehicle carried it over my car. Really wasn’t expecting much as I … Continue reading →

09.08.2016 Quabbin Birch Clump and Star

Posted on September 8, 2016 by Steve Gingold

We used to have a birch clump in our front yard, but it eventually had to be removed due to a few infestations. I have missed it ever since and, for that reason, always enjoy finding them elsewhere. This one … Continue reading →

08.10.2016 Another spectacular New Salem sunrise

Posted on August 10, 2016 by Steve Gingold

I made several exposures (times three for HDR) of sunrise from this well-visited spot. I had posted one on Facebook which had required a fair amount of flare removal and I can see a few artifacts so will probably cast … Continue reading →
