A labor day weekend in Rhode Island, while the weather wasn't sunny the sites were still fantastic. I love the lazy beachy days on the coast.

Bristol Ferry Lighthouse, Rhode Island. Discontinued with the lantern removed and now a residence. Situated a couple of miles south of the city of Fall River, Massachusetts. Just below here the Taunton and Providence Rivers merge forming Narragansett Bay. From there you can see the cities of Fall River, Providence and Newport with a twist of the head.

This is called "Clingstone" - it is someone's house. In 1938 a big hurricane hit New England and the storm surge went right thru the house. It has to be at least a half-mile from the nearest landing. A much enlarged crop - we didn't get very close.

Beach Portraits - Jonathan O'Brien
Sometimes I want to be on the other side of the lens! I had my friend Chris shoot me today in Westerly, RI. It's a very special place for me. Ever since I was a kid and didn't live in Rhode Island, my family would vacation here and camp at a nearby state park.

The Audrain Building is an architecturally significant commercial building located at 220-230 Bellevue Avenue, Newport, Rhode Island.
The building was constructed 1902-1903 to designs by noted architect Bruce Price. It is one of four buildings that form a distinguished central block within Newport, the others being the Travers Block (Richard Morris Hunt), Newport Casino (McKim, Mead, and White), and King Block (Perkins and Betton).
The building is two stories tall and forms six shop-front bays, with exterior dimensions of 110 by 73.5 feet. It is faced in red brick with brightly colored terra cotta trim accentuating the bays and roofline. Street-level ornamentation is relatively restrained but increases at the arched second floor windows and cornice.
In Virginia, where I live, there are miles of stone fences, especially out in the Virginia hunt country. So too in Rhode Island. However, the Virginia fences are primarily made of flat stones and is basically a lost art. Property owners often have to bring in European artisans to repair the fence. However, Rhode Island fences are primarily made of round stones and have been built for centuries by members of the Narragansett Indian tribe, many of whom even today are still skilled in the art. One neat feature of the fences are the artistic features built into the end of the fence, as shown in this image. A good description of the fences can be found at www.quahog.org/factsfolklore/index.php?id=87. HDR 5 exp 2ev tweaked with Topaz Adjust.
