Beverly-Salem Bridge…it’s not just for driving over

My friend Helen drags me to the most unlikeliest places to photograph.   Last night we went to the Beverly-Salem Bridge for sunset and blue hour and you would think to yourself “meh” not a great scene to shoot.   BUT…it turned out to be a great place to photograph!  Lots of color and clouds, the kids in boats fishing on a summer night, the train going by AND we were treated by the moon rising on the other side (and me without my big girl lens!).  After all was said and done it was another relaxing night of photography, a beautiful summer night for being outside and another perfect night with my friend Helen!

If you don’t have Amazon Prime You’re Living In The Last Century- Prime Day Starts Tonight July 10th At 9PM and lasts for 30 Hours

Posted on by Joey Ciaramitaro

Prime day is here 300x250

Prime Day 2017 – 30 Hours of Deals

Free two day delivery

Free Music

Free Movies which are better or as good as Netflix and Hulu and HBO

During Prime Day they offer the best deals of the entire year.

Amazon prime is the best deal on the internet.  I’m looking for deal on the Echo Show and definitely adding a couple of Echo Dots at $34.99 each (total no-brainer). 

I’ll highlight some of the ridiculous stuff that I see.  Stay tuned.  Check out the offers here

This is what I hear is confirmed so far from The Verge–

Amazon is offering some big discounts for its Echo and Echo Dot devices today. As part of the company’s annual Prime Day, Amazon is cutting the Echo price by 50 percent, and the Echo Dot by 30 percent. Amazon’s Echo will be available for just $89.99, 9PM ET tonight, alongside the Echo Dot priced at $34.99, the lowest price it’s ever been.

Amazon’s Echo Prime Day pricing is even cheaper than last year’s Prime Day or Black Friday. The aggressive pricing could hint that Amazon is ready to refresh its main Echo speaker this year.

Amazon is also previewing some other deals on its Kindle and Fire tablets, as well as TVs, headphones, and laptops. We’ve rounded up the best Prime Day deals below:
