One last image (for now) of the incredible light that took shape over Marblehead on July 1st.  After capturing the red glow of houses on the Neck and then racing up to the top of Crocker Park for an image of Abbot Hall and the purple light of the coming storm, I returned to the water’s edge once more to shoot the full moon rising over Marblehead Neck.

By this point, the full moon had risen above the layer of haze that had obscured it earlier and the clouds had began to spread overhead.  I spotted a couple on the Crocker Park float watching the full moon rise and decided on a wide angle view taking in the couple on the float, Marblehead harbor filled with boats, the lighthouse in the distance and the full moon rising over it all.
