Every spring when the snow melts, the Concord River fills up and flows over its banks. It’s always fascinating for me to see the acres of woods overtaken by the flood. While the bridge here between Carlisle and Bedford is in no danger, it is certainly a lot closer to the water than it is [...]

Looking up at the south tower of the Zakim Bridge in Boston, on of the widest cable-stayed bridges in the world. Shot one-handed out the car window on my way home from a visit to the city.
I had seen a blog post about the effects that a “rolling shutter” can produce when taking pictures of moving objects. With a rolling shutter, like the one in my iPhone, the image is scanned from top to bottom one line at a time. Things that move quickly can appear to be skewed because they [...]
