Sunrise Over Wollaston Beach

Having lived most of my life in Quincy, I’ve watched the sunrise over Wollaston Beach in every season. The quiet shoreline, the shifting colors, and the way the light breaks across the water always remind me why I keep coming back. This autumn has been unseasonably warm, and maybe that’s why the colors felt especially…
Morning Calm Over the Marsh

Driving toward Minot Beach at first light, I came across this stretch of marsh in Scituate lit with shifting color. The horizon glowed orange while the sky above deepened into blue — a gradient that lasted only minutes before the sun arrived. Even a brief moment like this, glimpsed from the side of the road,…
A Walk Among Giants

Visiting Muir Woods, it’s easy to feel small beneath the ancient redwoods. Just forty-five minutes outside San Francisco, it makes for an easy day trip. We arrived early in the morning and enjoyed the forest’s calm before the crowds rolled in. I spent the hours walking the trails, photographing spots where sunlight hit the forest…

A Walk Through Hatch Mill

Hatch Mill in Marshfield sits quietly by Hatch Pond, the last water-powered mill still standing on Two Mile Brook—a small stream that flows into the North River. It’s a piece of history you can visit, with tours offered a few times each year. Inside, the old machinery remains, silent but still telling its story. I…
Eustis Estate Museum

I stopped by the Eustis Estate in Milton recently on a late afternoon, drawn mostly to the mansion and its surrounding grounds. The house, with its late 19th-century stonework and towers, stands almost hidden behind old trees and rolling lawn. I didn’t go inside. Instead, I wandered the paths, seeing how solid and imposing the…
An Afternoon Stroll Through The Bradley Estate

The Eleanor Cabot Bradley Estate in Canton, Massachusetts is one of those places you just drift through. In summer, it’s often busy — rented out for weddings and events — but on this afternoon it was quiet. I took the chance to wander through the grounds and explore the formal garden, where beds of roses…
Lightless

This scene caught me off guard — a blue water tower, a small white house, and just enough of that lighthouse vibe to make me stop and capture it. Spotted near The Bradley Estate, Canton, Massachusetts.

Late Spring at Daniel Webster Wildlife Sanctuary

I returned to the Daniel Webster Wildlife Sanctuary in Marshfield, Massachusetts, just as late spring began to settle in. It had been a wet season—rain-soaked trails, heavy skies, and more gray than green—but on this visit, the clouds finally gave way. I was even lucky enough to spot some wildlife.
