Photography By Ed O'Malley »

Masthead header
  • Ed O’Malley is a nature photographer who lives on the coast of New Jersey, specifically along the shore of Barnegat Bay. He can often be found sailing, fishing, diving, or kayaking – these and other outdoor activities often provide the opportunity and inspiration for his photographs.

    In addition to his on-the-water pursuits, Ed has always enjoyed stormy weather, and in particular, the winter season – the more snow, the better. In the fall of 2007, this led to Ed’s affiliation with Mount Washington Observatory as a summit volunteer. Since then, this has provided many unique photographic opportunities on the summit of Mount Washington and in the surrounding area. Coastal storms also provide Ed with many opportunities for one-of-a-kind photographs.

Thank You!

Thank you to those who have “liked” my photography page on Facebook over the last few days!  If you have not already done so, you can do so here.  As planned, I have made my donation to the non-profit Mount Washington Observatory, where I volunteer, and where some of my favorite pictures have been taken.

Below you can see one of the first photographs that I took while at the Observatory, back in October 2007.  It is still one of my favorites.

Thanks again!

Spring on Mount Washington

I recently returned from another volunteer week at the non-profit Mt. Washington Observatory, located at the summit of Mt. Washington, New Hampshire.  As usual, I enjoyed my time there, and found many photographic opportunities, in addition to my responsibilities as a volunteer.  There was a wide range of weather – the week started with falling snow, and drifts that were several feet deep, and ended with clear, sunny, calm, and mild conditions.  We arrived on the summit via  combination of van and snow tractor, and descended from the summit down a dry road, in a van without chains.  As you may know, this is quite unusual for this time of year (now about 2 weeks ago).  You can see how the week progressed here.

As usual, I will be participating in the Observatory’s annual Seek the Peak hiking fundraiser, which is held in late July.  If you enjoy my photos, please consider making a donation in support of my fundraising efforts on their behalf.

You can read more about the Observatory, the event, and make a donation here.  All donations are tax deductible.

Thank you!

Ed:

These photos are magnificent – contrasts of light and dark, peace and violence, joy and sadness. Thanks for sharing.

Stock Photography at the Beach

I’ve recently started to offer some of my photographs as rights-managed stock photography. To start with, I’m offering images from close to home, since that is what I know best. Specifically, images of the ocean, waves, the beach, sand dunes, and more.  You can see what I mean here.

If there are other images or groups of images that you would like to see offered as stock photography, or as prints, please let me know!

Thank you!
