Here’s a unique view of Strawbery Banke in this image taken last fall. Everything was still green, and I still had my tilt-shift lens…so I went around experimenting, and found this shot that I’ve been waiting to share. I love how the lens plays with the angles of objects, like the fence at the lower right corner – and the prominent roofline of the old home to the left. The flag on the steps seals the deal for me, in this nostalgic feeling shot of the historic neighborhood.
Two more square shots are featured today, a tilt-shift view of the North Church taken as the sun sets from Market Street and a shot of the Memorial Bridge taken as the sun rises.
A post last week featured some shots taken from the Marin Headlands during a lovely sunset in San Francisco. Today I thought I’d share more shots from that evening, not so tightly cropped on the bridge and the moon. The sun creeping around the corner of the headlands was great to slowly watch disappear, and the setting sun’s light on the red bridge is incomparable. I’ll share a cliche shot of the entire bridge sometime soon too.

In this case we’re talking about Congress Street by Sunset and Congress Street by Dusk – close enough to fit the bill for the Portsmouth By Day | Portsmouth By Night category. This is one of Portsmouth’s busiest streets as evidenced by the steady flow of cars throughout the day….and during the summer it might take about 5x as long to travel through town. It’s a good thing that Portsmouth is a picturesque place, sometimes it’s not so bad to just cruise along. Hope you like.

The next few days will feature a more unique look to images posted here at the site, as I’ve rented a tilt-shift lens – a cool toy that gives a miniature/model feeling to shots. Let me know what you think in the comments.
