Blackstone River and Canal Heritage State Park, Uxbridge, MA.

Hi All,

I hope you’re all well!

I visited the Park in the summer, on one very hot and hazy day. It’s about 30 miles west of Boston. As you can see, it’s an extremely beautiful place with a multitude of things to do. I can’t believe I waited this long to visit.

I shot these images with a Canon 6D mkII and a Canon 20mm f2.8 lens.

Let’s take a stroll through.

take care

Hi All,

I hope you’re all keeping well!
You never know what you’ll find if you get yourself up and out there. These days, especially in winter, I find it a bit hard to motivate. But we all need to rededicate and move beyond the apathy…

I shot this a while back in Harwich Port, one of the many beautiful spots on Cape Cod.

take care

Like many, I love the beach. I’m drawn to it and many of my photos contain it’s beauty. What caught my eye here was the pattern of the fence and shadow with the colors of the sand. the natural aspect with the man-made.

I use a variety of film and digital cameras and devices for my film work. In this instance, all I had with me was a Droid 3 phone: 8 megapixels, LED flash, autofocus camera. I love my tech, low and high and am quite impressed by these little devices. Obviously most of them don’t provide the highest quality when enlarged but not too bad at this size.  I’m finding it more important these days to carry a simple setup that produces quality results and just get the photo. This setup isn’t it but it wasn’t too bad in a pinch.

I have been trying a number of setups and will detail some in future posts. leo brady
