Evening light reflected in a window of Central Grammar

Actually, this must be a reflection of a reflection, because it’s an east-facing window…

The new points to the old

The Gloucester Lyceum and Free Public Library, and the Unitarian Universalist Church.

Evening light makes everything beautiful

A fire escape on Center Street.  I stood there for a minute or two getting a few different shots, and as I walked away, a woman asked me what I was photographing.  I showed her the photos, and she agreed it was a nice subject… then said she was asking because it is her building! I bet she was worried that I might have some bad intent, maybe scoping the place out for a break-in or something.  Not to worry!

Unitarian Universalist Church seen from Main Street

This church adds so much to the view in Gloucester, from so many different angles and perspectives, I can’t get enough photos of it…

Impressions of Ravenswood Park

The other day, a friend took me to Ravenswood Park for the first time.  Good thing I wasn’t alone, or I would probably have either gotten lost or missed out on some of the beautiful spots in the park! This is a great place to go for a walk. Just bring lots of bug repellant…

Raindrops on roses

Some of our neighbors have roses right next to the sidewalk, and I took this photo with my iPhone the other day when it was raining. The two little round drops perched on top of the uppermost petal look like Muppet eyes to me… and the way it curls over is like a mouth.  As if the rose were a character from Jim Henson’s imagination…

Ten Pound Island in the mist

I walked around the Fort on a misty, cloudy day.  It was not conventionally beautiful weather, but it had a lot of ambience, which I tried to capture somewhat in this photo.

Granite from over the bridge

The rocks and water in these photos remind me of the rocks on the coast of Gloucester, although they are actually in northeastern Connecticut, in the town of Putnam, just a few minutes from my hometown.  The geology is probably very similar.
