Just want to wish everyone from the USA a Happy 4th of July! Enjoy the day everyone!

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

Took this shot last summer overlooking Rockport Harbor in Rockport, MA.

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!

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.

I processed this shot pretty heavily and eventually decided I liked this one the most. It has a sort of desolate feel to it that I liked. What do you think did I over-process it?

I just want to thank everyone for the great replies and response to my last post about the People of Haiti. And I want to thank you for any donations you gave to Compassion or another charity towards Haiti. If you are still thinking about donating to help the people of Haiti please click the banner below.

Since this is my first post of 2010 I would like to wish you all a Happy New Year!  Hope its a great year for us all!

Here is an interesting trivia question. What building in the USA is the the most often-painted building by artists? According to Wikipedia it is this little red building in Rockport MA known simply as Motif Number 1.

A few weeks ago I went to Rockport,  MA for the first time.  I definitely will be going back as I found it a really charming New England harbor town!

You could not pay me to get on this boat! I don’t think this boat will be above water for much longer.

I got the inspiration for this shot from seeing the many very cool photos yz has posted of half sunk boats on his photoblog. I probably would have passed these boats by without a second thought but as soon as I saw them they reminded me of his great sinking boat photos.

I never got around to posting this photo from my Nubble Lighthouse series so I figured now was as good a time as any!

Continuing my Boston Tall Ships 2009 series. This was by far the larget of the Tall Ships that I saw in Boston a couple of weeks ago.

Here is some info about the ship:

Name: Kruzenshtern
Homeport: Kaliningrad, Russia
Rig: Four-Masted Barque
Sparred Length: 376′
Draft: 19′
Beam: 46′
Hull: Steel

This fire ship was putting on a show the day of the Tall Ships in Boston and shooting its hoses into the air.

Also just want to let everyone know I will not have internet access for the next week so I will not be able to visit or comment on your blogs. I  have setup my blog to auto-post some photos over the next week though so if you want to stop by it is always appreciated!

This is the fifth photo in my Boston Tall Ships 2009 series. Here are some of the smaller Tall Ships as seen through this poem on glass entitled “New England Ode”.
