The Gift of Winter

December 13, 2020 by Greg Molyneux

14mm wide angle winter sunset photograph reflected over the derelict of Rand's Marina along Great Bay Boulevard Wildlife Management Area. A powerful December sunset smolders with flaming clouds cast in deep orange and red colors making first rate winter sunset intensity.

A powerful December sunset smolders deep. Burning yellow, orange red flame reflected atop the derelict ruins of Rands Marina. The entire Great Bay Boulevard Wildlife Management Area salt marsh burns bright as colder temperatures and winter weather approach. Cards on the table this is my best sunset photograph in five years.

Ice World Ignition

February 2, 2019 by Greg Molyneux

Explosive 14mm sunset photo over disused docks and frozen bay water.

Ice, snow, disused docks, and a high power sunset reflecting on frozen bay water bring wintertime drama to Great Bay Boulevard.

Derelict

December 21, 2017 by Greg Molyneux

Great Bay Boulevard sunset photo of Rand's Marina left in ruin.

The twin forces of time and water erode a once proud place of recreation and enterprise. Torn asunder in Sandy’s rage, the derelict of Rand’s continues to degrade. The months pass and the irresistible force of nature reclaims as it is wont. In the absence of human intervention the twin forces return the natural order. […]

Puddles of Sun

March 12, 2017 by Greg Molyneux

Sunset photo over reflective puddles and sand

Moments after a snow squall moved through that wrought dramatic clouds cast in a pink orange glow, the color palette transformed almost instantaneously as a soothing sunset appeared wedged between storm cells. A five minute respite in an otherwise turbulent Friday afternoon. It was all a weather/photo geek could take. Now I’m not one to normally use […]

Cracked and Cruel

March 11, 2017 by Greg Molyneux

Golden hour photo of cracked mussel shells, docks, and storm clouds.

Poring over Lightroom this morning with a fresh set of eyes it seems a solid chance I will publish upward of four photographs from yesterday’s Great Bay Boulevard golden hour shoot. While the initial shot I posted happened right in the thick of ever changing weather, I thought it best to post the remainder of […]

Once More Unto the Breach

December 21, 2016 by Greg Molyneux

Low key photo of a ramp descending into abandoned marina waters.

People, can we take a moment to talk about this photograph? I try my best to avoid any and all self aggrandizement while beating my chest set atop a majestic horse who itself sets atop an ivory tower, but man, I am in love with this picture. Let’s start with the truthful reckoning: I in […]

Blue Window to the Soul

December 9, 2016 by Greg Molyneux

Blue hour HDR photo of a derelict Rand's Marina and cedar poles.

There’s little doubt Rand’s Marina has rocketed up my list of favorite spots to photograph. The cedar pole and bay water combination provides plentiful foreground opportunities, and it’s compositionally strengthened with derelict dock remnants in the middle ground backlit by marsh, clouds, and sky background. It’s just a great space for making landscapes. While this […]

I Wonder

November 12, 2016 by Greg Molyneux

Golden hour photograph lights up a derelict marina.

I wonder what the future holds Hope or fear light or dark untold Uncertain what the day will bring Nighttime darkness turns and sings Tread lone to sole’s despair Shine and polish to soul’s repair Ardent and forward to set things right Walk back round to find the light Stark and full and wrought with […]

Perhaps this is Goodbye?

January 21, 2016 by Greg Molyneux

Sunset photograph of frozen bay ice locking in marina posts

Be it superstition, confirmation bias, or an actual demonstrable trend to which I have neither the data nor scientific awareness to prove, pre-storm sunset skies always seem to deliver. Today sure fit the narrative. Anticipating winter storm Jonas’ arrival has ground my personal perception of time to a relative halt. Since Monday night the hours, […]

We Face the Path of Time

December 9, 2015 by Greg Molyneux

HDR photograph of an abandoned dock set afire by intense sunset color

I’m still basking in the glow of last night’s awesomesauce. And as much as I like the photograph posted last night, this one beats it out ever so slightly as far as I’m concerned. I realize we’re splitting hairs here and traipsing into the realm of subjectivity. But that’s all part of the fun—it doesn’t […]
