After attempting to photograph the Moon, Venus, and Jupiter in the night sky Wednesday morning, the colors were so spectacular I couldn’t help but stay to photograph the rising sun. The beach was soon alive with surfers, paddle boarders, photographers, and dog walkers, in that order. The three panoramas were taken at about ten minute intervals. Click on the image or drag panoramas to your desktop to embiggen.
Thinking I would just take a few shots of the night sky, I had run out the door wearing only a light sweater. Staying longer than anticipated I came home shivering. Bundle up if out for an early walk on these gorgeous, albeit chilly, October mornings.
Few more snapshots here.

Thanks Kim for these wonderful pictures. We have all seen many fine photographs of GBH at sunrise, but these take the prize.

Thank you and thank you so much Karen for sharing that info. I did not know about the contest and i imagine many of the photographers who contribute to GMG would like to know about it as well.

That’s what I thought too. Just missed the 9/30 Mass Audubon photo contest deadline. Keep that one in mind for next year. 🙂

I’m a Canadian and just spent 5 nights and 6 days at beautiful Good Harbor Beach Inn. My late husband and I used to live on Essex in Gloucester. Your pictures are stunning. I recognize everything, and believe Salt Island is in your shots. I took some photos and my best I think was Wednesday morning after the bad storm had hit night before, i.e. Tuesday 29th September. Your photos filled in the many times I did not have my camera on a walk. Thank you. . .
