Relic

October 19, 2019 by Greg Molyneux

14mm wide angle photo of weathered wood set upon muddy salt marsh at sunset. An out of focus telephone pole appears as a cross in the background.

Photographs capture scenes to convey narrative in a visual medium. The story can be simple and straightforward, or it can mask in layers to tell multifaceted stories. It allows the viewer to imprint their own stories shaded by beliefs and experiences to connect in a personal way. This is the beauty of photographic storytelling.

Hit the Pavement

June 1, 2019 by Greg Molyneux

14mm wide angle sunset photo made at street level on an asphalt road surface between double yellow lines.

Get low. You will come across this command often in your development as a shooter. It is especially common for us plying our trade in the landscape photography niche. Get low. Get the shot. Get the viewer in. Throwing a quick and dirty best guess out into the universe, I would ballpark I make some […]

To the Point

September 25, 2017 by Greg Molyneux

Blue hour photo of marsh, puddles, and power lines along the roadside.

I’m brining it back to last Friday evening on Great Bay Boulevard. To my final set of seven brackets on what was an excellent first fall night. It was only moments earlier I scored this sunset before turning my camera vertical for blue hour. It was in this moment I thought about the past. Vanishing […]

The Old Wood Span

September 2, 2017 by Greg Molyneux

Golden hour photo of a wood bridge spanning a stretch of water.

To the romance of wood. The fuel of the hearth. The bones of the home. The backdrop of the written word. Nailed to the story of man wood’s place in civilization’s ascent is both secure and unsung. Its importance overshadowed by the power of stone, bronze, and iron. Perhaps there being no Wood Age—nor great […]

Drop in a Scene

August 28, 2017 by Greg Molyneux

Golden hour landscape photo over creek and wooden bridge.

I invite you to journey with me. But first you much breathe. Close your eyes and breathe. Inhale. Exhale. Slow your mind and follow your breath. In. Out. Deep breaths at first. Three or four long inhalations followed by slow and steady exhalation. Focusing on the breath. In. Out. Forget about the world. Repeat. Now […]

Turn Around

March 13, 2017 by Greg Molyneux

Full moon photo captured rising over pastel cumulus clouds at sunset

Brittle fingers frozen from too much time holding a metal camera body in stiff winter winds did their worst to keep me from making this final photograph during the snow squalls last Friday. Two fistfuls of immovable digits was begging me to quit, but after making this shot I turned around toward the east only […]

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 […]

Weather or Not

March 10, 2017 by Greg Molyneux

Dramatic cloud photo as snow squall storm clouds streak across the marsh.

Strange weather has brought itself to New Jersey. In typical Mid-Atlantic March fashion we’ve seen all four seasons this month and we’ve yet to cross the Ides of March. Yesterday we saw temps approach 70 while today much of the state was greeted with slippery roads and heavy wet snowfall. Once this morning’s system moved […]

Streetlight Delight

January 31, 2017 by Greg Molyneux

Low key black and white photo of heavy snow lit by streetlight.

A boy’s fascination runs deep. For as long as I can remember streetlight worship of steady snowfall has been a most welcomed seasonal companion. Growing up obsessed with snow I would eagerly strike days from the calendar in anticipation of winter weather. Winter was magic, and snow the tangible proof. Countless hours I’ve spent whiling […]

From One End To The Other

June 10, 2016 by Greg Molyneux

Wide angle HDR photograph of a rainbow forming over Long Beach Island houses bathed in gold.

Kicking it back to Sunday again. With light so good you know there’s gonna be at least a few photographs posted from what was a jaw-dropping 15 minute light show. With rain once again falling as the final moments of sun pulsed through a narrow opening in the cloud deck to the west an eastbound and […]
