On a weekday afternoon in early October I stopped by the Meriden Green as I had never been there before and was impressed by the foot bridge structure. My visit did not disappoint. This 14 acre park was quite beautiful. It’s many walkways and open greens allow for public recreation. There is a nice amphitheater…

Southford Falls in the Fall
I had been wanting to photograph Southford Fall in the fall and this was the last day I really had to do it before too many leaves were down. Unfortunately I would have to work in a fairly sustained driving rain. Not only did I have to be concerned with my equipment but the rain…

Grazing Horses in the fall……….Hamden CT
I took a ride over to the Hamden Polo Grounds to see what I could find. It was a beautiful fall day and leaves were dropping fast. They had four fenced in fields camera accessible from the road to pick from. Each one had horses but varying backgrounds. I ultimately chose the image, with the…

Barn and Silo in Woodbury CT
Per usual, Cheryl mapped out our next barn stop in the car while I photographed this one. It’s double silo tells me it was most likely a cow barn back in the day for a small farm. I don’t know what’s its purpose is today. Is it used for storage, is someone living in there…

Permaquid Lighthouse, ME

This was perhaps one of the most serene peaceful and beautiful locations that we had ever photographed. Unfortunately my image doesn’t…

1811 Old Jail, Wicassett ME
Cheryl and I stopped by the 1811 Old Jail in Wiscassett, Lincoln Country ME. Unfortuantely it was closed for the season during our September arrival. The prison has unique juxtaposition of jailers quarters hitched to the jail itself. Although we were unable to go inside I did find some interior photo’s at the Lincoln County…

Pelican Cove, ME
During our early September stay in Maine Cheryl and I visited the quaint coastal town of Ogunquit, (pop. approx. 1600), which is home to Perkins Cove. This was just a quick drive from York Maine where our hotel was. We walked around Perkins Cove specifically as this cove was surrounded by water on three sides…

Boathouse in York ME
While driving around scoping out potential shots we drove by this old boathouse and immediately knew it had shot potential. We then got up early one of the mornings, during our stay at York ME, and headed over. Of course, the buoy’s are what makes it so eye catching. We were fortunate to get there…
