I went to my first indy wrestling show and it was pretty good cheesy fun. It was for NECW and the main event featured the NWA champion in a dog collar match. You can check out the results/recap at NECW.TV.

The tall ships return to Boston to commemorate the bicentennial of the War of 1812, the last war fought under sail. I traveled to the Fish Pier and captured some images of:


  • Cisne Branco - 249-foot long full rigged tall ship of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil
  • Dewaruci - training vessel operated by the Indonesian Navy
  • Gloria - official flagship and training vessel of the Colombian Navy
  • Guayas - 257-foot long tall ship of Ecuador which trains and preps cadets

Check out the official website for more details.

Held on 80 acres in Carver MA since 1982, King Richard’s Faire is the largest and longest running Renaissance faire in New England. It runs for eight consecutive weekends from the first weekend in September through October. The recreated 16th village features a marketplace and ten stages of musicians, jugglers, mimes, gymnasts, and other performers. The king’s royal court also presides over contests of jousting knights at regular intervals as onlookers chow down on mead and giant turkey legs.

King Richard's Faire 2007

I’ve seen it advertised for a long time but, had never been to King Richard’s Faire. It’s fairly entertaining with acts from all over the country performing every two to three hours each day. Lots of medieval style stuff to buy. The jousting was the most impressive part of the day. Check out the performers: Aerial Angels, Paolo Garbanzo, and The Lost Boys.

Lots of shade so a few came out a little grainy. Had to zoom all the way and crop for the joust pictures. I wasn’t quick enough for much of the acrobatic stuff.

Norton Barbeque

Renee invited me over for a big BBQ at her new house. I met some new people and her family. I think there will be some new construction and renovation. I thought it was nice as-is, though there are some small rooms.

There’s always something interesting to photograph, even in a regular suburban backyard. Sometimes you have to wait for it to happen and sometimes you have to seek it out.

Renée and Brian Wedding Pictures

Brand spankin' new pictures from the wedding of Renee' Huffman and Brian Waite. The photos came out pretty well overall. Amazing what a good digital camera can do nowadays.
