The colors of Autumn in New Hampshire can be almost overpowering. The intense reds, oranges, and yellows contrast with the unchanged green foliage. I like the end of the fall foliage season when just a few colorful leaves resist gravity for a little longer than their neighbors. Sometimes the leaves resting on the ground are sprinkled with frost crystals for just a few minutes after sunrise. Last Friday was that kind of morning.
I happened to have my camera with me last Friday evening for an event in Portsmouth, so I thought I'd experiment with some long exposures of the local landscape, or actually the riverscape. These photos are of the Route 1 bridge to Kittery, Maine, and the Portsmouth Naval Shipyard.
Last summer Sarah Lee Guthrie (daughter of Arlo) and Johnny Irion (her husband) made beautiful music at the Prescott Park Arts Festival in Portsmouth, NH. These images are from their concert.
A small group of dedicated individuals have started the weekly Front Street Market to promote agriculture, the arts, and the small businesses of Rollinsford, NH, and the surrounding area. Here are a few images from the July 20, 2008 event.
Last weekend we took a field trip to the ocean in Rye, NH. The panoramic view wasn't very spectacular at the time of day we visited, but there were a lot of interesting little detailed scenes among the rocks. These were some I liked.
