On Wednesday, July 15, Marblehead was pummeled by rain that seemed to fall in sheets at times. The humidity of the system combined with the cold water temperatures to form fog in the morning and night for several days. As the system moved away in early evening, I decided to head out hoping for that fog and the strong sunsets that usually follow a good storm.
As I made my way across the causeway, I found thick fog had indeed arrived and made it difficult to see to the next lamp post as I drove. I continued to Foster Street and began to see the sun break through the clouds just to the right of Abbot Hall. From 7:40 to 8:35pm, I ran around the pier at the end of Foster Street capturing various compositions as the light exploded overhead. This was one of the last images of the night as the sun had set and the last bursts of the red sky at night reflected off the clouds above and the foggy water in Marblehead Harbor.
