...a 2nd in a series of sunrise images taken at Perkins Cove, along the famous Marginal Way...as i was repositioning my location and with a quick turn-around, came up with this shot...trees silhouetted against the fiery sunrise sky...the colors before the actual view of the sun rising was mesmerizing....

...this sunrise image was taken this morning in Perkins Cove, Maine...along Marginal Way...this is how the sky looked which only lasted about 10-15 minutes...no post processing on this shot...with exception of very minor cropping...the 21 second exposure was with the help of a variable ND filter...gotta love the beauty of predawn colors...

...dusk at Adam's Point...
...i had just enough time to drive out to Adam's Point, outside of Newmarket, NH, to catch sunset...there were certainly beautiful colors right after sun down...very peaceful here with exception of 8 or so kids deciding to strip down and jump in the bay...they were in, out and gone in about 2 minutes...certainly a great way to start off the year...

...image of Rye Beach at sunrise...unfortunately, cloud cover on the horizon limited the "expected" warm colors...this photo is the result of 3 bracketed images, 2 of which underexposed and the 3rd at exposure...the result created the vignetting which I elected not to correct in post...it helped showcase the spotlit beauty on the sea grass and ice...
