Every night since 2017, at 9 p.m., I’ve posted an image of Westport. Some are recognizable and relatable; others are artistic, whimsical or surprising. All are new, and fresh.
Every day since, I’ve posted a Pic of the Day. Prominent photographers have sent in shots; so have people who never published a photo. Some are in their 90s; others are teenagers.
The subjects range all over town: Nyala Farm. Longshore. The Levitt Pavilion. Staples high School. The train station. Main Street. The Greens Farms post office.

“Pick of the Pics” coincides with “06880”‘s move to non-profit status. Our mission is to “create a community for Westporters old and new, near and far, through sharing stories, news, events, history and perspectives, uniting all who love our hometown.”
Proceeds will help us fulfill that mission.
