Nose-busting Mr. Chris “Stovall” Brown returns this Thursday for yet another rousing evening of Bad jokes, incredible glitar and heartfelt vocals. Always a pleasure to have mr. B. around. He keeps me honest, knows a million toons and has a new wireless rig that allows him to communicate with the planet Altair IV, as well as jump around all over the place whilst whanging out yet another incredible solo enroute to the front door. You gotta see this.

Of course, our Gatling drummmbler aka Mr. Chris Anzelone will remain forcibly rooted to the floor and the groove via welded connection to me; the basest.

Night Shots

Posted on by Bridgette Mathews

BLM_6053-Edit

Last year I started venturing into night shooting with my camera, starting to shoot long exposures with stars and the milky way, but one of the funnest ways is to find a completely dark area and play around with light sources.  Last fall I took a workshop at New England School of Photography and we went out to Fort Revere Park in Hull, MA  (which was pitch black at 10pm at night!) and had a blast playing in the dark!   This was shot using a clear tube with flashlights at each end.   As I opened the shutter Cousin Wendy walked back and forth with the light source, close the shutter and voila!   So fun to see what the camera can see when we can’t.

Karen Pishke Represents! In India

Posted on by Joey Ciaramitaro

My husband and I recently traveled to India for a family wedding. In my mad dash to the airport, I left my GMG stickers at home. While there I was never able to connect to the hotel’s very slow computer to access my email, and truly felt ‘a world away.’ Somehow, I did manage to logonjust once to GMG’s website to catch up on local news and print a GMG sticker. The Indian wedding was 3 days long, and included a Sikh and Hindu ceremony. I took part in the mendhi (henna) and other ceremonies. The family also arranged tours of Old Delhi and the Taj Mahal. We totally immersed ourselves in Indian culture and customs, were charmed by our warm new relatives, and enjoyed delicious, buffet Indian meals. Cows were seen roaming the streets and sidewalks, along with dogs and monkeys, like this one seen at the Taj Mahal. And if anyone thinks Boston driving is crazy, they haven’t been to India! This video is shot from the front of our bus, on the way to the Taj Mahal. :O

ANNISQUAM SUNSET

Posted on by Kimsmithdesigns

Lighthouse Beach Meadow Sunset Annisquam Kim SmithHow Color is Created in Bird Feathers will continue tomorrow. So sorry, but was a very long work day today. It’s so interesting though and I can’t wait to get back to writing. Did you know that the study of feathers is called Plumology? I’ll have time to finish tonight. In the meantime, here are several of last night’s snapshots from a walk at sunset on the Annisquam meadow, heading to Lighthouse Beach. It was a beauty, especially with the bevy of Robins doing their robin-hop-thing while feasting in the grass in the softening sunlight. Spring really and truly has arrived!
