The day winds down as a winter storm gears up. Twilight sets in with grey skies and holiday lighting in downtown Portsmouth.
Congress Street & The North Church
Congress Street & The North Church
Icicles on Odd Fellows Hall on Congress Street are the real giveaway that this image was taken during the winter. The windows of the buildings lining Congress Street lead back to the steeple of the North Church on a cloudless evening.

The Memorial Bridge is one of my favorite places in the Seacoast as you can enjoy a fantastic view of Portsmouth and Kittery on a walk over the Piscataqua River. The positioning of the bridge provides great views of sunrise and sunset – but on this particular evening I was drawn to the architectural detail and symmetry of the structure and the motion of the cars in either direction as they passed by.
Portsmouth Beneath Fresh Snow
Portsmouth Beneath Fresh Snow on Thanksgiving Day
This winter’s first snowstorm left just in time to leave behind a beautiful coating of fresh snow beneath clear skies. The earliest light of the morning was the most intense with the base of the clouds lit up with bright oranges and pinks, but by the time I made it over to the Kittery waterfront for a clear view of the Portsmouth skyline, the clouds had almost entirely blown out to sea. It was a real treat to watch the skies change and the clouds clear out and transition into a beautiful day. I have very much to be thankful for this year and this was one more reminder as I headed home to celebrate Thanksgiving with my family.
