It was a brisk morning for the Ed King Seascape Photography workshop at Sachuest Point National Wildlife Refuge in Middleton, Rhode Island. The sky was as dark as ink, and the stars twinkled like little jewels in a sea of black velvet. Sixteen members of PSRI bundled up for the 37 degree weather and followed Ed out onto the rocks Saturday morning.
Once folks got out on the rocks, they scattered in all different directions – some climbed up high on the rocks to look around and get a lay of the land:
Others chose to stay on top of the rocks
While others climbed down to be near the waters edge
Once the sun had crossed the horizon the group packed up and headed home to work on their images, and maybe, just maybe, get a little sleep. Here are a sample of 4 images created by some of the workshops participants.

nice blog Mike and great images…
The area is beautiful, with lots of potential for photography, but I was not in the best of positions for this shoot. The rocks were treacherous and the darkness made it difficult to maneuver, so I stayed put. I also had way too much equipment with me to easily pick up and move. I plan to return to the area and try again. Next time, one bag, close to the body will be all I take with me.
They ALL look great to me! I can’t wait to become a member.
