A warm welcome awaits at this charming home! The inviting porch and beautiful landscaping immediately put you at ease. What makes a place feel like 'home' to you? I think this was built in 1847 as a Greek Revival style home, #photography #eastcoastkin #newEngland

Did a quick visit to Buttonwood Park yesterday and saw some early fall colors. Talking of early am I imagining it or have the fall colors started earlier this year? Taken in New Bedford MA with Sony A7IV and Tamron 28-75mm and 50-400mm Lens #photography #eastcoastkin #newEngland #NewBedfordMA

No morning walk today, feeling better, but it’s cool out so decided to be sensible and stay in. Strength isn't just about pushing forward every single day; it’s also having the wisdom to pause and preserve your energy. #photography #eastcoastkin #newEngland #NewBedfordMA #sonya7iv

It's not a recent photo, but I love the way this single willow tree on the island in the pond commands the pond. Every visit to Buttonwood feels incomplete without me taking a look at this. #photography #eastcoastkin #newEngland #NewBedfordMA #NatureLovers

They don’t build them with details like this anymore—from the curved bay window to the intricate woodwork and stained glass around the entryway. Would you keep these warm wooden doors as-is or paint them a bold color? #photography #eastcoastkin #newEngland #NewBedfordMA #historichomes

More photos from my visit to Grace Episcopal Church this time focusing on the stained glass windows which are so beautiful my photos don't do them justice I have been invited to visit another church with beautiful stained glass windows so looking forward to doing that

A morning sky like this means a fresh start is here. Just like the crew of the K.A.T.E. II preparing for the open sea, every sunrise gives us a clean slate to weather any storm and chart a new course. #NewBeginnings #Resilience #MorningMotivation #KeepGoing

There’s something special about how morning light highlights classic historic details. I’ve always admired the unique mansard roof and dormer windows on this Victorian classic. ​What’s your favorite style of historic architecture when you're out exploring? #photography #eastcoastkin #newEngland

Even the toughest boats need to come into the harbor sometimes. Feeling pretty worn down, thinking it might be a virus. It’s a good reminder to slow down, heal up, and get ready for the next adventure. I'll be bouncing back strong! #HarborLife #NewBedford #thistooshallpass

Taking in the intricate stonework and character of the Millicent Library. Built in the 1890s, this historic Fairhaven treasure is a masterclass in detail and design. Taken in Fairhaven MA with Sony A7IV and Tamron 17-28mm Lens #photography #eastcoastkin #newEngland #FairhavenMA #sonya7iv

The journey over the rocks is fun, but can be tricky especially if rocks are wet but leads to a spot for a nice viewpoint at the top of Palmer Island, which makes it all worthwhile! Taken in New Bedford MA with Sony A7IV and Tamron 17-28mm Lens #photography #eastcoastkin #newEngland #NewBedford

Standing tall on the historic Belgian blocks of Union Street, the National Club building carries over a century of New Bedford stories. From its days in the city's booming industrial era to its current chapter, it remains a true Downtown landmark. #photography #eastcoastkin #historic #NewBedfordMA

The historic Tiffany Studios window at Grace Episcopal Church features rich jewel tones, intricate details, and the iconic "TIFFANY N.Y." signature visible right at the bottom. The three panels depict Jesus welcoming and blessing the children, surrounded by lush foliage and vibrant backdrops. ​

Even when the morning feels heavy and blue, remember that you carry your own light. These boats don't wait for the sun to find their way; they gear up and get to work. Be like that. Set your course, power up your inner drive, and go create something beautiful today. The world is waiting.

The glow of these gas lamps is pure 19th-century charm, but the menu is all 21st-century freshness. If you were stepping into People's Pressed right now, what's your go-to order? I like the sound of Beauty and the beet myself? #NewBedfordMA #PeoplesPressed #ColdPressedJuice #LocalEats

Every block, every streetlight, every detail matters. It's the small things that build the big picture. Someone a while back asked for a photo of the old telecom building in the historic district and ar ground level I never git a ohoto I was happy with so I went up Elm St garage and got this view

Just some intentional camera movement for a dreamier view of the carousel building at BattleshipCove. I zoomed the lens in and out with the camera in a slower-speed setting while I shot to get this effect. What do you think? #photography #eastcoastkin #newEngland #icmphotography #havingfun
