Happy Holidays 2024
The year 2024 has been full of great adventures. We spent the month of February in Antigua cheering on Hound. Carol did some interviews for the book and I capture on board and race start stills. While there we fit in a lot of Wingfoiling, thanks to the hound container. The final two weeks in Antigua we were at the Dutchmans Bay Cottages feet from the water. If you are into SUP, Kite surfing/foiling, wingfoiling this is a dream location. Off the beaten path a bit but that makes it special. And if you want to rent gear, take lessons,…

RORC Caribbean 600 & Antigua 360
Great time of year with spring starting next week. We are back home after an amazing month working and foiling in Antigua. I have been busy culling an setting up galleries for clients from the month away. So now I have the time to go through the rest of the photos. I am building albums/galleries for all the classes and some individual boats. Not only do I have the RORC Caribbean 600 start, but also the Antigua 360 start. Both will be mixed together in the galleries. New albums and galleries will be going up each day for the…

Antigua, Caribbean 600 Race
We are in Antigua for the RORC Caribbean 600 Race, and of course wingfoiling most days. As many of you know Carol is writing a book about Hound which won her class last year. This year Hound made the podium again. Great boat and fantastic team. I was hired for detail photographs of Hound in Newport/Jamestown, and in Antigua did a training sail. Below is a quick gallery I put together, from the start of the 600. There is a lot more to come. I will build individual boat galleries as requested, and each for class. There will be a…

Breaking the Winter Photography Blues
Welcome to winter, you wake up and see another gray on gray day. Your camera gear is ready to go but you are not too excited about what to shoot. Take the challenge below and enjoy the gray on gray light to improve your creativity. When it comes down to it we are only shooting light. Gray on gray is still light. Sure it would be nice to have a post cold front with lots of clouds, wind, fast changing weather, and sun. That will come but, in January/February try getting present with the conditions. In the winter I go…

Ocean Race Newport Start, with gallery
I had the opportunity to join my wife Carol Newman Cronin as she commentated the in-port race and start of leg 5 of the Ocean Race. I was brought in to shoot some stills for the Jamestown Tour Boat Coastal Queen. We did the same thing for the Bermuda Race start and it is a great time for all. There were 76 happy customers enjoying the fantastic view where Captain Dan placed us. And the great info from Carol. Very special to have the second deck to get a view over the spectator fleet. We were far enough away that…

Attention To Detail Is Needed For The Results
You are out racing, feeling good, but you just can’t stay in the lead group. What to do? Well, we have all been there, and I will give one tip that I know the boats winning make a big part of their racing. To start with, take notes after every time you go sailing. Write down what worked well, and what did not, what needs fixing or replacing. Be honest with yourself, no sugar coating. Go through the steps why you were having problems. And this is not only boat speed. It can be boat handling, weather, crew personalities/skills, tactics,…
