My View of Life on the Dock
morning photos: cloud drama starting 8:45 AM on March 18, 2024 in Gloucester, Mass.
View from Thatcher Road–tapers to the right
as if it were a daylight aurora in the bottom layers
Sundogs are colored spots of light that develop due to the refraction of light through ice crystals. They are located approximately 22 degrees either left, right, or both, from the sun, depending on where the ice crystals are present.
Photo blocks from Long Beach, Rockport & Gloucester, Ma.:
When it’s time it’s time. The lifeguard chairs, most of the stairs, and the footbridge are removed every year, and for this season it was at sunrise Sept 14. Rockport DPW is also on top of the storm prep ahead of this weekend’s Tropical Storm warning forecast. They work fast to beat the tides.
I saw this beach chair and thought perfect chair for Schooner Festival weekend. Imagine chairs on the boulevard printed with custom vessels (iconic racers and current ones). The smoke in the sky again from fires in Canada.
When the sea is black, the photo with the blue sky pockets and the clouds like waves–the last sequentially–was unexpected. Note the scale of the Long Beach cottages vs. clouds.
Clouds, some rain and sun, last weekend was interesting.
As I was sitting on the beach around 3:00 on Friday the clouds came directly over and around us. Very cool.
Cloudy weather does not divert from the beauty of mother nature. Love the lone sail with Boston in the background. Also, if you look closely, you can see a plane taking off and an egret.
Walking on Magnolia Beach late afternoon on Tuesday afternoon.
Seeing Boston from Magnolia Landing so clear as the clouds were leaving.
How lucky are we to live in such a beautiful place.
After the snow, ice and sleet, Friday’s clouds, sun and ocean were stunning.
Good Morning Gloucester
