Market Street View

Jump to Comments

After the sun retreats and before night sets in, there’s this magic time of day that photographers like to call the blue hour.  This particular evening, following a nice cloudy afternoon, the storefronts on Market Street were illuminating the sidewalk and the colors of the buildings complimented the rich blue evening sky in a way that I had to shoot.  A simple glimpse of an evening strolling down Market Street.

  • Lovely light and great street scene Phil! I like!

  • This looks like a living Kincade portrait. The only difference is the era of clothes and vehicles. Love your stuff!

  • I have fond memories of portsmouth. I was there between 1969-70. I was stationed in kittery aboard the U.S.S. THOR ARC-4. I was at the u.s.o. during moon landing. I also played at a night club across the u.s.o. on market st. I played with a band called johnny lane and the naked society. I bought my sax. next door to the church at a music store. I still have it , and i am still a musician. I am from corpus christi texas. I am 64 years old now, and I hope to some day return, god willing. I used to eat hot dogs next to the church on congress st. I believe with the white steeple. It was an old cabboose run by an old man called Gilly, I think. He had white hair. I was 20, or 21 years old.
