Summer tents. Ocean Grove, NJ. By Paul Goldfinger © 2013 Ocean Grove
These tents are the most photographed of any structures in town. They captivate visitors who love to hear the story of the tents. They are amazed that the tents are still in use and that you have to wait for years to rent one.
Photographing them is a challenge if you want something unique other than the tired snapshots that people acquire with their phones. Nevertheless, those photos are the ones that get disseminated all over the world. They are patriotic images because so many tenters fly the American flag.

Sue: Why not send us some of your work. Send us two of your best shots. thanks, Paul
In my opinion, the tents make better subjects in the off-season when you can work with the colors of the shacks and the shadows cast by the support timbers.
