The people watching is about to get excellent…it is spring and the sunny warm weather is here, bringing the usual influx of people to the center of Portsmouth.

At Prescott Park
Prescott Park is a beautiful waterfront park that changes throughout the year as the trees bloom, as plays come and go from the main stage by the water, as the richly colored gardens take shape in the spring, and particularly this year as the Memorial Bridge gets deconstructed. The park has been one of my favorite places to go and enjoy the salt air of the river and to think over the years.

As Night Sets In on the Piscataqua
The spring and summer months provide a spectacular view of the sunset from Portsmouth’s Decks. It’s always a fun place to have dinner or a drink when the weather is warm, especially with a front row seat to the beautiful sunsets we enjoy during the summer. I obviously love to shoot the dramatic sunsets, but I don’t as often take the time to capture a night shot once the sun has set. This dusk time shot features a freighter in port in the distance, the tugboats, a hint of daylight on the horizon, the Memorial Bridge cranes and the Middle and Piscataqua River bridges.

Tugboats and Clouds on the Piscataqua
A simple and moody shot of the famed Tugboats and The Old Ferry Landing as seen from The River House’s deck. I’m eagerly anticipating the warm weather’s return so that I can eat food outside and enjoy this gorgeous waterfront spot.

Demolition by The Bridge
The approach span to the Memorial Bridge stands now as rubble next to the former site of the Pier II Restaurant. The North Tower can be seen without its counterweight in the distance.

Market Square at Sunset
This is probably one of the last few evenings where the traffic (pedestrian and vehicular) will be nearly nonexistent in Market Square at 6:45 in the evening. I love how the light peeks over the tops of the buildings along Congress Street to mark the North Church clocktower and the buildings on the opposite side of the street.
