Golden Hour Haze 2
OK. Ready or not, it is July. Here was the first for this. Dawn, with all its promise, is my favorite time of day. I’m not so much nocturnal or diurnal . . . call me interurnal, familiar with that time between night and day … when for a short time, the light paints […]
Before Golden Hour 2
Here was 1. Dawn’s early light is my favorite time in the city that never sleeps. Even Navig8 Gauntlet snoozes, except for the person on watch. Captain Dann is moving about, spinning around for an assist. Radiant Ray is aptly named for this time. Truth be told, the sixth boro never sleeps. Ellen, along with […]
Before Golden Hour
It should be no secret that I’m an early riser, have always been one to get up in the “o’dark” hours for the morning golden hour, the best time of day. Here are two Miller’s Launch OSVs, possibly Rana and Rosemary. A bit later on a different day, I caught Dylan Cooper westbound, with […]
Golden Hour Haze
It’s been a while since I’ve acknowledged this my favorite time of day. Golden hour at 80+ degrees is quite different than it at 40- degrees. But here are my shots; I took them and then headed for the shade. Larry J Hebert lies alongside the dredge and Mister Jim is happening by, westbound. Actually, […]
Road Fotos 2021 F 1
For some context, Road Fotos 2021 E left off in September here, and I’ve not caught up with road fotos for November. But let’s jump ahead to December, and a trip we could start in New Iberia, about 150 miles west of New Orleans. It was a reconnoitre, a gallivant to investigate what to spend […]
Random Tankers 10
Random means all within the past month and all ages and sizes, like Giancarlo D 2016 508′ x 85′. Kmarin Resolution is also a 2016 build, but 820′ x 144′. Lightering is Linda Moran with barge Houston. Linda was the tug spared in the W & D fire back in 2008. Maybe someone can identify […]
Sixth Boro Details 16
It’s not the best photo maybe, although–hey– it was the golden hour when B. E. Lindholm came into the boro recently. They’ve been working along the east side of Sandy Hook. Some small craft traffic the boro all seasons of the year. I suspect this is going out fishing, but I’m not sure. Daisy Mae […]
More Sea Smoke
Almost exactly a year ago, I had a glimpse of sea smoke in the sixth boro here. Basically, it can be seen when “cold” air comes into contact with warmer water; as soon as the air is warmed by the rising sun, the mist dissipates. Photos taken during the window it’s visible, in […]
Dawn 2023 B
Part B of this post is a corrective. The lead photo I used two days ago was NOT the first photo I took in 2023; rather, the one below was: a pristine 1969 or 1970 Buick Electra (?) parked here by another photographer wanting to get golden hour photos of the sunrise over waters near […]
Bronze 9
To start, let me reiterate what I said over a half year ago here: “Way back in 2007 I started this series, and I now think I should never have called it “bronze” since it’s more like a golden brown.” I recently saw Josephine pushing a fuel barge, and then light, pirouetting in the current, […]
