I don’t know if people in my precinct vote more than in others, but it was steady on Tuesday morning at 10:30. And a bright, crisp, late winter day. It was an especially good day to be an appreciative citizen of the USA!
The Decisive Moment
In photography, the “decisive moment” is a key concept. Part of it is being in the right place at the right time, and another part of it is recognizing that you’re in the right place at the right time.
Take a look at some of my own images from the last few weeks – decisive moments, for sure.
Turkey Patrol on Main Street, Falmouth
The turkeys continue to be in charge of Main Street, even though the “alpha” turkey has reportedly been removed from the flock.

Old Silver Beach – First Snowfall, Jan. 5, 2016
Sunrise, sunset… Not the sunrises so much, but the sunsets do get me out the door, looking for the moment. Here I was, taking pictures of the reflection of the sunset over the water and on the first fresh snowfall of the year. Those pictures were pretty good, but when I turned to leave and saw my reflection on the wall, I knew that was the image I wanted.
Although we’re officially in the season of “hunker”, every other day seems to be gloriously sunny and warm. Whether you’re reading by the fire or walking in the fresh air, enjoy – and find some of your own “decisive moments”!
Cape Cod Art Association Show, “Beaches”
The Cape Cod Art Association recently sponsored a juried online photo competition, with “beaches” as the theme. Steven Heaslip was the judge, and 30 images were selected, one of them mine.
The other images are quite gorgeous and well worth looking at. Mine is a simple cell phone photo I took one evening when I was at a clambake at Old Silver Beach. Amid the other images, I think mine is like a palate cleanser, simple and refreshing.
Take a look, I hope you enjoy this show!

Sunset Chasing
I was driving across town late Saturday afternoon, heading west, and the orange glow in front of me was magnetic. Like others out in their cars at that moment, I headed to the nearest west-facing beach as fast as I could. This is what I saw:
