Post Labor Day is the start of my “sunset season” as areas previously available to residents only are now available to all! I parked and faced the sun as it fell behind a low long cloud that fell behind the trees. As I watched people leave the lot in discouragement, I decided to sit andContinue reading “CT: Fairfield County- Darien- Pear Tree Point (Driveup Sunset)”

Inspiration: A Natural Work of Art
An imperfect sunset resulted in a work of art. I’m grateful I paused. Cove Island Park, Stamford, CT, August 2021
MA: Berkshires- Stockbridge- Naumkeag Public Garden
The first time I drove past these gardens they were closed. I was happy to be able to pre-register and walk the grounds on this August evening in 2021. The estate and grounds were donated to allow the public to have an opportunity to enjoy what this wealthy family experienced many year’s ago. Below isContinue reading “MA: Berkshires- Stockbridge- Naumkeag Public Garden”
NY- Catskills Region- Ashokan Reservoir (Sunset)
I chase sunsets and love to go to see them in different places and find unique perspectives. In the Catskills I read to go to Ashokan reservoir and just stop your car. I stopped the car on the side of the road, climbed over a barrier and stepped on my glasses to get these cellContinue reading “NY- Catskills Region- Ashokan Reservoir (Sunset)”
Inspiration: Dancing Flowers
I worked in a park this evening heads down to the laptop when colors reflected on the screen. I picked up my camera beneath my feet and turned to the garden flowers dancing in the front row for tonight’s magical sunset. Ballard Park, Ridgefield, CT, August 2021
RI-Newport-Battery Park Sunset
I was given a local tip for a sunset location in Newport away from the crowds and I found it perfect. I knew it would be fun as I approached as I best enjoy locations which offer other areas of focus in addition the sun. I ran around the park trying to get the sunContinue reading “RI-Newport-Battery Park Sunset”
CT: Fairfield County- Stamford- Cove Island Park (Kayaking)
Funny thing is I live in Stamford, CT and yet this is the first time I ventured with my kayak to Cove Island Park. The likely reason is that it’s on Long Island Sound and I’m a lazy river type of “yak-er.” The launch is easy from the large parking lot and quite appealing intoContinue reading “CT: Fairfield County- Stamford- Cove Island Park (Kayaking)”
FL: Collier County- Naples Pier
One of my favorite past times is chasing sunsets. When visiting my son in Naples I immediately researched the best spots. Naples Pier made not only the top of the lists for the county but also for the state. While I have photographed and seen many sunsets in Connecticut, I admit the glows were muchContinue reading “FL: Collier County- Naples Pier”
CT: Fairfield County- Darien (Sunset)
For those that chase sunsets, locations can be a challenge when you live on the east coast and are not on the water. I enjoy finding viewing opportunities in unexpected places and I’m always on the lookout. As I walked out to my car from Equinox Darien the night before a storm, I was drawnContinue reading “CT: Fairfield County- Darien (Sunset)”
NY: Orange County- Warwick- Bellevale Creamery
This spot combines two of my favorite things in one – ice cream and a sunset! In Warwick, New York on the top of a mountain lies the creamery. I have been here twice at sunset as I’ve been told it’s the best place for a sunset! While it was cloudy on this evening theContinue reading “NY: Orange County- Warwick- Bellevale Creamery”
