Cranberry Festival

So Judy and I trekked down to Wareham (which we discovered is the gateway to Cape Cod) for the annual cranberry festival held on the property of the AD Makepeace company back on Columbus Day weekend. Just 2 bucks to get in and easily the best 2 bucks I've spent in a while. Aside from activities and vendors and the usual festival happenings, they bussed you out to a working bog and just let you hang out for as long as you wanted while the harvest was taking place. Got an upclose look at the whole process - so cool. A couple of photos:

Also had a birds of prey exhibit going on and I couldn't help but grab a few shots:

Brides Magazine & WPJA Photo Contest Winner

There I am scrolling through an email about the 2009 Brides Magazine and Wedding Photojournalist Association (WPJA) Photo Content Winners and whose name do I come across, but my own. Photo contests are a great way to keep me motivated and give myself challenges to expand my horizons in photography. While a slightly indirect way to find out I'd placed 6th in the ceremony category, I was happy to receive the recognition, nonetheless.

Leigh & John's Wedding - Harrington Farm, Princeton, Massachusetts

This is the first of my new-style wedding posts, as I now have the ability to create slideshows with the images I've captured during a particular event. I've loved this idea for a long time as it allows me to more easily showcase a greater amount of images and give folks the feel for the entire wedding. And its set to music, which is cool (although if you're at work you may want to turn down the volume). Hope you like it.
