Newport, Rhode Island; a town so wealthy that this musical couple didn't have a recepticle to collect money. They played delightfully.

 Sailboat, Newport, Rhode Island.

                                                Woods. Rhode Island. Natural splendor.

 This image was shot in the early seventies by talented my wife, Marcy, with her Canon FT and the 50mm F 1.8 FL lens on Kodachrome II. I kept encouraging her but after our children arrived, she unfortunately lost interest. Too bad. This lovely image was taken at Westerly, Rhode Island.

This reflection off a church window in Newport, Rhode Island, that also gives us peek inside shows the severe, no nonsense architectural style that cries out New England Protestantism.  I just love it.

 Another archival or vintage photo shot by my lovely and talented wife, Marcy in the fall of 1972. An abandoned Mill in Westerly, Rhode Island. Wonderful composition. 

A rose is always a rose

 

A little street music

Couple having fun playing music in Newport, Rhode Island on a sunny Saturday afternoon. They were pretty good.

Providence R.I.

These are more images from Providence's Italian section that naturally made up of restaurants and cafes. It's a lively area and the food is fine. Basically Italian American fare but I was able to have a decent  prosciutto and mozzarella hero that unfortunately was almost ruined by the de rigueur  balsamic dressing. I despise anything balsamic. This is perhaps a result of my non conformist nature but I find balsamic dressing to be hard to take. At any rate the prosciutto was tasty and the mozzarella fresh. The bread crusty and due to my great hunger these minor faults were easily overcome. It is a fun place to visit but it's nor Arthur Avenue in The Bronx. This area will be featured soon.

Have a great weekernd

Rhode Island

These photos were shot in Rhode Island right after the passing of a storm. The sea was so grey that the black and white conversions are rather effective.

I love the sea. Born on a town on the sea, I just crave the salty air, the sea breezes. the mist and the entire majesty of it all.
