There was a time when I walked the two miles (and back) to Bend in the Road Beach almost every day. It's been awhile. I'd like to get back to this habit. The good news is I'm getting a handle on the Lumix's macro capabilities (hint: MF).
Welcome. Edgartown News was born from the simple fact that I have ink and Dektol in my veins and I need to write and photograph more than I need air or food, and from my love for this little town where I grew up and raised my family, the town I have left a few times but can't quite shake for good. Here you will find the wanderings and musings, photographs and commentary; the people, places, and happenings - past and present - of a small island town: my home town.

Walk to the Bend
I'm not saying I'm running out of things to photograph, but it sure does feel like it during these dulled-down corona days.
There was a time when I walked the two miles (and back) to Bend in the Road Beach almost every day. It's been awhile. I'd like to get back to this habit. The good news is I'm getting a handle on the Lumix's macro capabilities (hint: MF).
A path less traveled.

I'm loving the bokeh on the Lumix.

Waiting for dinner to be delivered.
There is almost always a red-winged blackbird in this tree on the edge of Trapp's Pond. He is usually heard before he is seen.
Trapp's Pond, with Cow Bay beach houses beyond.

Below: these tiny wildflowers on the side of the bike path were a sweet surprise. I should know their name, but I do not, nor could I find it anywhere.
