the dailypic 3499 yr10 212 Fire House Spin
I’ve wanted to shoot a series like this for years, last year I reached out to Medway Fire Department to see if they wanted to be involved. Not only did they want to be part of it, but they also invited me up to the station to shoot it. Steel wool, stainless steel whisks, chain and a willing subject, dressed for safety shot with a wide angle lens and long exposures. After weeks of delays due to rain, we finally had a night that worked. We had hecklers yelling America! as they drove by, I am sure it was a sight to see with the station being at the intersections of two main roads. Thanks to Lieutenant Tracy for partnering with me on this and Firefighter Lennon for spinning like a pro.

Been awhile since a barn update, It is coming along, we are very close to being ready to shoot some photos in there. Couple delays came up as to be expected, that’s why I did this in January and not portrait season. I know at one time I had hoped for an Open House this Saturday the 26th, that will be moved, but the wait will be worth it. I am excited to see it all come together. Shout out to James Daniels Licensed Electrician for lighting her up and Tucker Construction for all the work they have put into this project, go check out these two great local businesses. More soon.

the dailypic 3343 yr10 056 Barn
This is the week, a raising will occur, and at the end, there will stand a new barn/studio. Thanks to friends Ray and Molly for this new ornament, if we get around to a tree this year it will be fitting to add it to the collection. While we are at it since I mentioned Ray, Ray Auger the Morning Host of MyFM in Milford and frontman of many local bands will be handling the dailypic for a bit. Right after the barn gets here, a week from today, I will be in Cuba. And I have no guarantee I will have a connection to the outside world. At first, this was stressful to consider, but now I look forward to the electronic vacation. To make sure the dailypic is represented daily as it has been for many years, Ray will be handling the posts. If I can share a photo with him, he will add it, if not then you will have a guest host to make sure you are still entertained. And fear not, no matter what I promise I will be still taking at least one photo a day and sharing them when I return. But first, we barn…

the dailypic 2930 yr9 008 Three Minutes on Main St
OK, first for those that follow everyday, I am sorry… I made it a week in black and white, not a month. The dailypic is alive to me, it is black and white when it wants to be. I felt I was forcing it, so back to color until it tells me otherwise. Now, on to these shots, I needed to go for a walk tonight so why not go be creepy and stand on the side of the road with a camera and a tripod. Three shots, 3 minute exposures each. Just some fun light streaks or Main Street and its travelers.
