chatham harbor -0394

There are any number of beautiful towns and villages tucked into the hillsides and coastline of New England, and Chatham MA might just be the most photogenic of them all. It’s a small town of six thousand (three times that in the summer) on the elbow of Cape Cod, with many wonderful homes throughout (that classic Cape style), and spectacular ocean views to the east and south as well.

Now granted, I’ve only been there once – which just happened to be on a beautiful early September day with a huge high pressure ridge (lots of blue skies, low humidity) firmly in place over the entire Cape – but still. It’s a remarkable town and certainly worth a visit, or two or three.

full buck moon-9705

There’s a nice description of full moon names here.  This view is from the Essex Dock,  looking east across the CT River toward Old Lyme.  The tide is coming in, right to left.

harbor-4448

Another image of the Mary E. and the harbor, taken the next morning; what I especially like are those clouds and the pastel hues in the area. This was taken about a half hour after the sun rose, stage left.

Moonrise, Old Lyme, CT

June 19, 2011

The full moon in June, also known as the Rose Moon (Colonial American), Lotus Moon (Chinese), Green Corn Moon (American Cherokee Indian), and my favorite, the Moon of Horses (Celtic), rises out over the Atlantic Ocean.  The lights on the horizon line are ships moving in a southeasterly direction, left to right across the photo.
