Harbor Sunset

Photograph by SG Atkinson: Harbor Sunset
While I don’t often go out to capture sunsets, sometimes they do find me. This was one of them. I was working with the business association in Galena on a fundraising event and they wanted a few photos of the view of Georgetown Harbor on the Sassafras River. After the planning meeting I went to take a few photos and this was one.

This photo is offered as a Fine Art Print and on Note/Greeting Cards

Rock Hall’s Beach

Photo by SG Atkinson: On the Chesapeake
The Town of Rock Hall in Kent County, MD is a small town on the Chesapeake Bay. For much of its history it has been a town full of those who made a living on the water. It still is, but the watermen way of life has faded and many docks are full of sailboats instead of work boats.

There is a small beach that is enjoyed by many as a quiet peaceful place to sit and enjoy the sight of the Chesapeake.

This photo is available as a Note/Greeting Card.

Betterton Beach after the Storm

Weather can often change what is usually a beautiful, comforting location. Betterton Beach is one of those beautiful comforting places. Especially in the middle of summer.

This photo shows how a storm can make a big difference. Early March 2018 saw a North Easter come up the coast of the Atlantic. The Delmarva saw lots of rains, but also very strong winds that blew driftwood, logs and other garbage onto the beach.

Queen Anne’s Court House Square in Spring

Photograph by SG Atkinson: Queen Anne's Court House in Spring
The Queen Anne’s County Court House in Centreville, MD is the oldest court house still in use in the United State. But not for much longer since a new modern one is being built a nearby.

The Court House was featured in a Video that was shown just before the Super Bowl LI. This photo of the court house was shot in the spring of 2016, a few month before the footage used in the video was shot.

60 Day Photo Challenge

Delmarva Scenes my photographic project to photograph the Usual, Unusual, Beautiful and not so pretty scenes on the Delmarva Peninsula. The Delmarva Peninsula is the State of Delaware and the Eastern Shore Counties of Maryland, and Virginia. For those who may not know much about the peninsula you can read about it at DelmarvaUSA.com.

The project began over 5 years ago and during those years I have taken thousands of photographs. Some have been offered as Fine Art Prints, others in Calendars and Cards. Some have found their way to all three.

With the end of the year coming, along with the Holiday Seasons and the online store opening with New 2019 Calendars and Note/Greeting Cards for sale, I have decided to post a new photograph each day from now until the New Year. And perhaps beyond.

Along with the photograph I will tell the story of how it came about.

Thank You
SG (Steve) Atkinson

The photograph that I used for the Delmarva Scenes Advertising Card came from a larger photo taken at Chesapeake City, MD and the C&D Canal. This is the basin behind the Army Corps of Engineers.
