Just a few from a couple of random and unfocused walks, trying to fill the hours and stay active, though in these unstructured times it's difficult to stay inspired. As I write, I don't even know what day of the week it is.
The evening before last I pulled myself up out of a late afternoon nest I had created for myself - shades down, wrapped in a blanket in front of a movie - and lo and behold, while I wasn't looking, and to my great surprise, an after-the-rain sky show had materialized, waking me from my afternoon ennui. I grabbed the Lumix and out I went, thinking I might find a rainbow in the east, above the harbor, but the conditions weren't quite right. At any rate, the light downtown was interesting and worth walking out the door for.
Yesterday continued cold, with a strong wind from the northwest. The light was not my favorite for photography - a little bright for my taste - but I persevered.
Following a ten-minute deluge, the late afternoon light painted the town. Above: looking east towards the harbor; below: looking west, back towards home.
Edgartown Harbor is still very much a working harbor, albeit quiet at the moment.
Edgartown's version of row housing.
(Above) When the wind blows strong from the northwest it creates tides that are much lower than usual - something about blowing all the water away. This is extremely low for Bend in the Road Beach. The cumulus clouds are also a clue as to wind direction. (Below) A few people I love. This is how we visit these days; take-out-window-style.
