The New Year started off very nicely on Wednesdays in Marblehead. I shared my annual year end slideshow to a very warm reception and then found myself at Redd’s Pond where I was a bit surprised to see so many kids on the ice either learning to skate or taking part in pick up hockey games. I shared a quick iPhone shot of that scene and must have triggered a fair share of memories as even more people seemed to identify with that image than the video.
A bit later in the day, I brought my son to Redd’s Pond so he could get on the ice for the first time this season. When my wife joined us, I took my leave and headed out to Fountain Park and then the launch near Marblehead Lobster Company to capture the first sunset of 2014. I have a few images to share from this day including the earlier shot of Redd’s, some great clouds from Fountain Park and a certain lobster boat in the still waters of Little Harbor.
This image with the stacked houses along Little Harbor, the Lighthouse in the distance still draped in holiday lights, the reflection in the waters of Little Harbor and the hint of pink in the sky was my favorite image from the outing and the first I wanted to share on this New Year on Wednesdays in Marblehead.
