these pics are incredible. nothing like summer in new england. nothing like new england in general…
hi brian, welcome back. these are breathtaking. at first i thought i could mention which ones i liked, but by the end, i realized: all of them.
i truly missed seeing your photos pop up in flickr every day. glad you are back!

Welcome back Brian! Lovely photos! Can’t wait to see the film pics.
these are so lovely . . .
making me homesick just a bit, and helping me remember those brief years I was a New Englander!
Brian, that top photo is amazing. ( as are all the rest) Well done!
Glad to see you back here posting pics!
Stunning photos! I am going to Cape Cod for my honeymoon in October…Any tips on what to do/see/eat? We are staying in S. Wellfleet.
I remember going here as a kid…you can never go wrong with pictures and the beach. Can’t wait to see the film.
welcome back! these are gorgeous photos. lots to take in.
So THAT’s Cape Cod. I’ve never visited, but have been curious for some time now.
The blue photo with the sailboat is particularly special.
glad to have you back! These are incred. cant wait to see what the film brings! Is that your future sister in law with the jeans rolled up??
Yum!
(And I can’t believe how all your digital has a slight film spirit!)
I really love your pictures!
About 2.5 years late to the party, but for one glorious summer between the end of college and entry into “life” I was one of the caretakers for those white cottages with the green trim, in fact I almost left my pinky finger in one of those cottages by accident. Me and the other caretaker were given room in the last cottage towards Provincetown at the end of the row across the street from the bay. They were one room affairs with a little kitchen and tiny bathroom and we didn’t have a TV or a phone. Any calls I made had to be placed from a pay phone about 50 yards down the road. The two best memories I have from that place are of sitting outside watching thunderstorms roll across Cape Cod Bay until they were finally on top of us and we had to go inside and sitting outside on hot nights drinking beer, smoking cigarettes and listening the Red Sox on the radio. It was about as close to heaven as I think exists on earth.
