One of the most memorable sunsets I’ve ever witnessed after powerful thunderstorms cleared out of the area – fully illuminating the brick buildings of Bow Street and creating a rainbow over the Memorial Bridge.

Tugboats & Snow Drifts
The snow drifts from the incredible winter of 2015 have almost completely overtaken the railings at The Decks. The snow drifts make for some interesting flow lines and somewhat soften the industrial waterfront of Portsmouth.

On The Decks (Summer in Portsmouth)
In the heart of winter amidst bitter cold and multiple feet of snow – it’s always nice to remember the warmer days in Portsmouth. Summertime is filled with great outdoor activities of entirely different kinds (no jackets/mittens/hats required) – and with many options for having a drink out on the waterfront (complete with an amazing view of sunset). Here’s to warmer days!

A stand up paddle boarder navigates the Piscataqua River amidst the Moran Towing tugboats and a massive freighter known as the Curacao Pearl from Nassau.

A Night On The Waterfront
From a distance, a night on the waterfront in Portsmouth seems tranquil and inviting. This same scene from the decks themselves reveals a busy and vibrant night life, where it’s normal to have to wait for a table – but it’s usually all worth it if you can time it perfectly and enjoy a summer sunset out over the Piscataqua River on a warm night.
An Evening Glow on The Decks of Portsmouth
Today’s image is another composition from a recent harbor cruise out on the Piscataqua River. As we were heading in to dock at the end of our sunset cruise, the city’s evening lights started to overpower the day’s natural light, creating long reflections in the river’s surface and a great glow. This is one of my favorite times of day – just after sunset when the sky is usually still doing amazing things.
Tugboat in the Fog
A sole Moran Towing tugboat rests amidst the fog in the Portsmouth waterfront. With all of the heat and humidity we’ve been seeing here in the seacoast, there have been many foggy and moody mornings. Here is a profile of a tugboat with one of my favorite parts of town – the decks! Happy Friday and happy summer to all.
