Was great seeing a little bit of color that this Blue Jay provided during a snow storm a few weeks ago. He really stood out in a sea of dull brown and white that the winter brings!

“One felt as if there was an enormous well behind them, filled up with ages of memory and long, slow, steady thinking; but their surface was sparkling with the present: like sun shimmering on the outer leaves of a vast tree, or on the ripples of a very deep lake. I don’t know but it felt as if something that grew in the ground — asleep, you might say, or just feeling itself as something between root-tip and leaf-tip, between deep earth and sky had suddenly waked up, and was considering you with the same slow care that it had given to its own inside affairs for endless years.”
—The Two Towers by JRR Tolkien

Spider Tree, Tree, Vine, Brick, Wall, Stone,

I thought this bare tree/vine with the twisting limbs reaching out in every direction looked sort of like a giant spider hanging on this brick wall!

I tried several processing ideas but finally I decided I liked this sepia toned processing the best. I think the aged looked works for this. Maybe I will post the color version later to compare it to this one.

Hay Bales, Field

I took this photo back in September of a field filled with hay bales. They had just finished baling earlier that very day and were still out in another field making bales.  I liked how the hay bales could be seen far into the distance.

I liked this shot so much I decided to include it in my New England 2011 Scenic Wall Calendar! If you want to purchase  a 2011 calendar for yourself, or to buy as a gift for a friend, or just want to let me know how it looks and are interesting in checking it out, below is the link to where you can purchase it and see more :

Fall, Pointing to Fall, Autumn, Trees, Field, Leaves, Branch, Red, Orange, Green

Took this Autumn foliage photo a few days ago at Maudslay State Park in Newburyport, MA. It was a beautiful Fall day and the Fall colors are getting closer to peak!!

Ocean, Pipes, Construction, Bulldozer, Smoke Break

Thought this was pretty cool and makes for a good silly Tuesday photo! Over the weekend this bulldozer type machine was picking up the pipes used on the beach for dredging. With the sand pouring out looking like smoke and ashes and the angle the pipe was being lifted it looked to me  like this bulldozer was smoking a cigarette.

I took this photograph  in late September on Plum Island in Newburyport, MA.  Already the Fall colors were starting to appear!

The Winding Road, Fence, NH, Hiking, Trail, Sabbaday Falls

Here is a photo of a hiking path in the White Mountains of NH. This trail leads to Sabbaday Falls.  I will maybe post a photo of the falls later in the week.

“May the Great Spirit curse you when he speaks in the clouds and his words are fire! Lightning blast your crops! Wind and fire destroy your homes! The Evil One breathe death on your cattle! Panthers howl and wolves fatten on your bones!”

That is the alleged curse of an indian named Chocorua who the legend says died on this mountain that was then named after him.  Its kinda cool that this mountain is one of the only bald ones in the White Mountains and sort of fits with the legend of the curse! If you want to know more about the legend of Chocrua check it out on Wikipedia.

Anyways these are two photos of the mountain I took last weekend. The lake in the front is Chocorua Lake. I always loved this mountain as it really stands out from the other mountains in the area with its rocky and bald summit.  Someday I want to hike up it!

Hi all! Sorry I have not posted any photos in awhile or visited your photoblogs.  I am going to try to get more active again! Went to the White Mountains in NH this past weekend and have some shots from there to post. For now this is another shot from Rockport Harbor.

Also I have finally joined twitter! So feel free to follow me if you want to see tweets about my oh so exciting life lol :). I also will update it when I post new photos and have other photography stuff that I want to tweet about! I put a Twitter widget on this page as well so just scroll down a little to see it.

It may be a bit hard to see on this smaller version of the photo but on the mooring ball of the sailboat there is a bird with his wings all stretched out! Thought that was pretty cool. If you click the photo to make it larger you should be able to see the bird better.

This rock was overflowing with colors and life. It was sort of like its own little planet with its own ecosystem!

About a week or so ago I was dog sitting for my brothers pug puppy (you can see a photo of him much younger here) and decided to take him to the beach! It was his first time there and he had a blast. He would run towards the waves when they went out and run away when they came in. Also as you can see he loved digging around in the sand with his nose! :D

I just realized that today is the 2 year birthday of my photoblog!! Wow I cant believe its been two years already. Time flies. I want to thank all the regular commenters  and visitors as without your encouragement I doubt I would still be posting photos! I really do appreciate your visits and comments alot! Here is hoping this coming year on Fotoblography.com  is a good one and the camera keeps clicking.

Looking through this foggy window in a cabin by a lake the man on the bench seemed to be haunted by the shadowy figure outside the window.

We had our first two snow storms of the year in the past week. Here is a photo I took of the fresh snow on some trees the morning after the first storm.

I could not decide if I went to far or not with the softening of this image.  Eventually I decided I preferred the softened version as it has a dreamlike  feeling to it that draws me in.  I have included the normal version below that I almost posted instead. Which version do you prefer? Click on the thumbnail below of the unsoftened version to make it bigger.
