Cape Cod Past and Present

A Series of 17 photos – one for each Cape town & the Islands – showcasing scenes from yesterday and today.

In planning this Past & Present photography project, Dan Cutrona, one of our ace freelancers, suggested we ask Charles Sternaimolo to take on the assignment. Charles, after all, had completed similar work for his hometown of Fitchburg and has photographed 180 sites across the Cape, New England, and New York that artist Edward Hopper once painted. We took one look at the work on his website, and we agreed: Charles was the man for the job!For two solid months, Charles worked on the project, traveling nearly every inch of the Cape, doggedly visiting and revisiting lighthouses, historic buildings and picturesque downtowns to capture them at just the right angle and light. We are thrilled with Charles’ work and proud to present it on the following pages. We also asked him to share a little about the project and what about it he enjoyed most. – Matt Gill
