After an afternoon of bright sunshine, fog formed along the horizon. `The moon appeared more distinctly as it rose in the early evening sky. It was a good night to chase the moon.

Chasing and Waiting
July 4th Information for Hyannis/ Mid Cape
Hope you all have a fun and safe July 4 celebration today and tonight.
There are many places to go and things to see in Hyannis before and after the fireworks display.
The sun sets at 8:19 pm and the Fireworks are scheduled to begin at 9:00 pm.

If you are looking to enjoy the fireworks over Lewis Bay and be on your way to go other places, viewing from the West Yarmouth side of Lewis bay will give you a great view of the display with less traffic congestion.
Englewood Beach is less than a 20 minute walk from route 28 and its parking options. The parking spots at this small beach will fill quickly. The view from the boat slip area is excellent.
Another option would be Colonial Acres Beach. The walk from route 28 and its parking options is less than 15 minutes.
Below are photos from Englewood Beach July 4, 2017
These West Yarmouth locations provide great views of the setting sun as well:
And Yet Another Cold Morning
I have grown tired of the cold weather and am ready, really ready for spring.
However, I still get up early to catch the sunrise. I just don’t venture out too far and find places where I only have to step out of the car to snap a few shots.
Geese Gathering in Hyannis
Geese gathered during the serene moments before sunrise. They called out to a group at a nearby marsh. Soon there was much noise and commotion as the call was answered and the groups combined and all took flight.
Damn tourists.
Waiting for Spring
This morning I was in Hyannis to catch the early morning light. Spring is less than a week away but it sure didn’t feel like Spring was coming soon. With the snow in the foreground of these beach photos, it doesn’t look like Spring in near either.
Birds along the shore seemed to be waiting for Spring.
Sundown in Hytown
It was a stunning display of light and color at one of my familiar spots looking towards Hyannis over Lewis Bay.
Kind of cool to share this moment of awe with perfect strangers who also stopped to take in this beauty.
Winds from the Warm Front
Today it hit 40 and it may be even warmer by the end of the week.
The winds whip up the clouds pretty good when the sun sets. I feel very fortunate to be able to get out to take in sights like this.
Cold Wind Bright Clouds
Yesterday was the coldest day since late winter. The wind was strong and seemed to go right through you.
But it was these same winds, I imagine, that gave such unique shapes and textures to the clouds in the southwest sky.
It’s Here! It’s Finally Here!
It’s opening night for the Cape Cod Baseball League.

Early Morning Clouds
I was so fortunate to get out to see the clouds before the sun rose this morning. The early light catches the clouds with a pink hue and highlighted texture. It is a short lived thing to see as it is not visible when the sun comes up.
