The paths we choose
“A straight path never leads anywhere except to the objective.” Andre Gide “I took the road less traveled by, and that has made all the difference.” Robert Frost “Give careful thought to the paths for your feet and be steadfast … Continue reading
Ascending and secure
“Build today, then strong and sure, With a firm and ample base; And ascending and secure. Shall tomorrow finds its place.” — Henry Wadsworth Longfellow Photo taken with Fujifilm X100s, native B&W (i.e., in camera). No further adjustments.
One subject, three views
There’s a 700 acre park in nearby Needham, Massachusetts, which is my go-to for an impromptu photo walk, due to it’s abundance of trails and ponds, a river, foliage and wildlife. On Saturday, I had an hour to kill so … Continue reading
Revered chains
“It is difficult to free fools from the chains they revere.” — Voltaire Photo taken with Olympus OM-D E-M1 and Olympus 70-300 mmII.
Read this if you suffer from G.A.S.
No, not that kind of gas. I’m talking about Gear Acquisition Syndrome, that malady that affects many, many photographers, who are drawn to the myriad of websites that review, compare, sell and discuss every new camera and accessory. And are … Continue reading

The Bleak Season
It’s in the betweenness of it all. No longer winter, with sparkled shimmer landscapes. Not yet spring, with blossoms and bloom. We transition. I’m invigorated, camera held, down a familiar path. Some days. But the betweenness of all, right now. Sloppy footing, grayscale … Continue reading
A Day at the Park
These four young ladies had just left the Visitor Center armed with maps and plans and high hopes for a day at one of America’s National Parks. Which one was it? Sony Nex 6
More motion
Last week (see here), I posted a piece about accentuating movement through the use of selective panning and slow shutter speeds. It’s nothing new for sure, but is rather a solid and often effective photo technique. We’re posting here a … Continue reading
Memories?
“Take care of all your memories. For you cannot relive them.” Bob Dylan Wait a minute Bob. What is a memory, if not a trip back to a time, a place, a feeling? Memories are time travel, much as photography … Continue reading
Abandoned
“The flame called the moth but the glass pane was there. How many have died not in the fire but in the cold, crazed in longing?” —St. John of the Cross Taken with a Fujifilm X-T1 (with the “kit” – … Continue reading
Still. Life.
“Your living is determined not so much by what life brings to you as by the attitude you bring to life; not so much by what happens to you as by the way your mind looks at what happens.” Khalil … Continue reading
moments
Little Italy, though at a pace much faster than I had hoped. Reservations at 7, reservations at 7… with the ticking of my wristwatch sternly noting that we’d better hurry. They were full of intent and though the hour differed, … Continue reading
A journey of a thousand miles…
“Do the difficult things while they are easy and do the great things while they are small. A journey of a thousand miles must begin with a single step.” Lao Tzu Dedicated to our friend, David Patterson
accentuate movement
When you proceed. Nikon D300s with panning motion and slow shutter speeds to accentuate movement. Color extracted in the top image (Nik Silver Efex Pro) and bolstered below (Apple Aperture). Do you have any examples of images such as these? … Continue reading
Beginnings and endings
“Life is not so much about beginnings and endings as it is about going on and on and on. It is about muddling through the middle.” Anna Quindlen
the one-sided throw down
It was a throw down moment, at least from one corner. She was a thousand miles distant and within, he with weapon loaded, cocked. So be it from the turret, whereupon he peered. She only carried on. As his finger … Continue reading
Through a mirror darkly: Ed’s selfie
Add an iPhone to a few minutes of downtime, and, well, you know what happens.
The Self Portrait
No, not the cellphone selfie. Thought I’m not above doing that, it’s a bit crude for this purpose. I think it’s fun to take creative self portrait shots. Here’s one I took during a recent trip to Rockport, Massachusetts. Please … Continue reading

A Cloistered Life
It’s an annual rite, an obligation actually. I depart from my life to unplug and renew for a few days, to retreat. This year, I chose something a little different. I decided to live among a cloistered community of Catholic … Continue reading
