Autumn's Remembrance

Today is Veterans Day in the United States, honoring all those who have served over the centuries, and in remembrance of the armistice on November 11, 1918 that ended the horrific slaughter that was the First World War. This particular section of Forest Dale Cemetary in Malden, Massachusetts honors those who faught in the U.S. Civil War, 1861-65. A big thank you goes out today to all of those who have fought for just causes in the history of our world, particularly those who have made a choice to stand up against tyranny and oppression.

Swift River Red

Peak autumn color comes to the banks of the Swift River, in the White Mountains of New Hampshire.

New England Autumn Forest Brook

Autumn leaves cover the forest floor as the waters of Partridge Brook cascade over rocks and roots, on their way down towards Chesterfield Gorge.

Spring Finally Comes to New England

White Mountains Whitewater

Flume Brook in autumn, plunging over the granite steps of its eponymous gorge, on its way down the slopes of Mounts Flume and Liberty to the Pemigewasset River. Franconia Notch State Park, in the White Mountains of central New Hampshire.

Fifty Seconds Over Lower Manhattan

Just as the title says, as shot from Brooklyn Bridge Park with a 10-stop BW neutral density filter and a Hoya circular polarizer. On an early spring morning just before a storm front moved in. Not long after this, all of that blue sky was gone, and with it most of the light and color from the scene.

October at Lower Falls

Lower Falls of the Swift River in central New Hampshire as the autumn leaves hit peak color. The water was still low enough that I could get out on the rocks in the middle of the river where so much of the riverbed was exposed, creating little cascades and eddies where normally the river would just go over a couple of broad drops.

Middle Sabbaday Falls in Autumn

Sabbaday Falls, in the southern White Mountains of New Hampshire, is a set of wateralls carved through granite by melting glacial waters at the end of the last ice age. The top fall is a five-foot punchbowl, followed by a 22-foot drop (pictured here), after which the book turns immediately to the right, and plunges another eight feet down a narrow chute. One of the most unique features of this waterfall at this time of year is how the autumn colors of the leaves on the overhanging trees filter down light from above, which, when combined with the reds, oranges, and yellows of the fallen leaves around the falls, frames the water in a remarkably colorful, warm glow.

Fall Meets Winter in upper New England

The White Mountains earn their name as a recent snowfall blankets the slopes of Mt. Lafayette (5,249 ft – 1,600 m) in white, just as the fall color reaches its peak above Franconia Notch.

The Stars From Brooklyn

Looking west towards lower Manhattan and the Brooklyn Bridge, where the only stars to be seen at night are the twinkling lights of the city skyline. A ten-second exposure.

Sunlight in a Washington Winter

The afternoon sun passing behind the dome of the US Capitol on a cold, snow-covered winter's day. Warm wishes and best of luck to all of you digging your way out of the most recent snowstorm to hit DC.

Nubble in Winter

Cape Neddick (Nubble) Light, in southern Maine, catching the last rays of sunlight on a blustery winter's day just as a big snowstorm was moving in.

Fiery Winter's Sunset in Oak Grove

Just as the sun was beginning to go down, the storm that dropped more than half a foot of snow on us earlier in the day cleared up and we got treated to one of the most remarkable sunsets I have seen in Boston. Everything was bathed in this warm, rosy glow. I only had my iPhone on me, as I was out walking my dog and did not expect things to open up like this. Minimal processing, just to get the image to how it looked to the naked eye, and, of course, #‎nofilter.

Manhattan Sunset Swirl

115 seconds of the sun going down behind the lower Manhattan skyline, from New York City's Brooklyn Bridge Park.

Lower Falls Late in the Year

Lower Falls on the Swift River in northeastern New Hampshire at the tail end of peak autumn color this past October. I was here just before nightfall, and got the place pretty much all to myself. Three RAW shots, tripod mounted, and blended together for extended dynamic range in Adobe Lightroom (but not tonemapped), and then processed like any typical RAW file.

Autumn Silk

Fiery foliage along the banks of the Swift River, at Lower Falls in the White Mountains of north-central New Hampshire.

Waiting For Mr. Tumnus

One thing about winter in New England: sometimes you wake up in the morning, step outside, and it's like you've walked right through the wardrobe into the land of Narnia.

Fallen Leaves at Flume Brook

Autumn comes to the rivers and streams of northern New England. Flume Brook in Franconia Notch State Park, in the White Mountains of New Hampshire.
