On Tuesday, July 30th, we headed out on the Hannah Glover to Children’s Island where my son was spending two weeks at camp.  This was the session’s Family Night and I made sure to bring my camera for the ride there and back.  It seems that I am always greeted with great clouds on the few occasions when we head over to Children’s Island and this time was no different.

As we made our way out of Marblehead Harbor, I noted the American Flag on the back of the Hannah Glover and tried to include it with compositions of Abbot Hall and, later, Marblehead Lighthouse.  Eventually, we were far enough out of the harbor that both appeared in the frame.  That’s when I angled the camera up a bit and closed down the aperture to get a bright sun star to complete the scene.

Seemed like a great way to start off this Summer weekend.
