Coastal Images from New Hampshire

I have been working on coastal images of New Hampshire during the fall, winter and spring. I really enjoy creating photographs of what may seem to be very normal landscapes, almost bland or benign subjects, but capturing them in a more interesting way, with tension or even a cynical edginess to some of them. Here I have captured the big church steeple in downtown Portsmouth, a watershed area near Rye NH, post-fire & heat effects on some buildings in North Hampton NH and a few landscapes of Rye Harbor.

I really enjoy photographing in the late fall, winter and early spring in the Northeast. There is a simplicity to landscapes that draws my attention to some of the details I think we normally miss in the flourish of colors and activity evident in the spring and summer months.
I also search for subjects that I believe are often overlooked or disliked, such as the lone pinkish house below that is such a sore thumb in some ways but beautifully lonely yet seemingly content in its surroundings: almost as though it has just settled in for the brutal winter months and their storms.
