Dramatic Skies, Plymouth, Massachusetts, USA

This day had one of those mornings when the clouds, sun, light, color, and wind speak volumes about the beauty and drama in the natural world. I raced downtown to Plymouth Long Beach and Harbor areas to capture it.  

Long Beach looking east toward the tip of Rocky Hill.

The view north from the downtown public boat landing area.

The breakwater that protects and encloses Plymouth Harbor.  Rocky Hill in the distance.

Near where the Mayflower II would be docked - if she were in town - she is still out for maintenance after sailing away in January.

They took the Mayflower II away for maintenance but left her longboat behind.

The howling wind has this flag standing at attention near the Pilgrim Belle, a tourist paddlewheel cruise ship that plies the local harbor area.

Looking north from the Pilgrim Memorial State Park.  The Mayflower II would normally be visible docked left of center.  Plymouth Rock is off-camera-left, in the cove.  It was quite a morning of dramatic clouds and strong wind - but it wasn't cold!
