Rhode Island

With the exception of my senior year of high school — when I was out of my mind with piss, vinegar, and hormones — I spent every childhood 4th of July in Bristol, Rhode Island with my dad. My son is (astonishingly) ten months old now and I have spent most of the day wondering [...]

Tuesday December 22, 2009

My dad’s birthday is December 20th. This year Mother Nature’s gift to him was a tremendous snowstorm that blanketed much of the East coast. He took some terrific photographs of the area around his home in Portsmouth, Rhode Island. Here’s a sample:

Photoshop Movie Effect

Sunday May 20, 2007

Tonight I found a pretty cool Photoshop Tutorial and used it to edit one of my favorite photos of the J.R. Bean Saloon on Thames Street in Bristol, RI. I’ve never actually been inside the place, but every time I’m in town I find myself taking shots of that wall. The one on the left [...]

My Sisters

Friday June 21, 2002

I just cannot believe this. It is not every day that you get a chance to photograph the two most beautiful girls on the planet. It was terrific fun to get to visit with both of them last weekend. Of course I didn’t get to be with them as much as I wanted – and I [...]

Christmas Eve Kayaks

Monday December 24, 2001

Here’s another one of my dad’s photographs. He’s been kayaking all over New England for the last year or so. He’s got a thing set up so he can have his camera on the end of the kayak while he’s … er … kayaking. (Y’know, there really aren’t any synonyms for kayaking.) I just think [...]

Mr. Potato Head

Monday August 20, 2001

LONDON — A giant Mr. Potato Head statue given by a U.S. town to its twin town in central England had to be removed because local residents said they didn’t like it. Pawtucket, Rhode Island, where the “Mr. Potato Head” character featured in the “Toy Story” movies was invented, sent the seven-foot-tall plastic effigy to [...]

Clapton

Friday August 25, 2000

Once upon a time … many, many years ago … my dad and I went somewhere. I don’t remember where. It’s not important. When was it? I don’t remember that either. I think I was a teenager, but I might have been in my twenties. That’s not important either. We were in Rhode Island. I [...]
