5th Anniversary Celebration of Plymouth Digital Photographers Club, Plymouth, Massachusetts, USA

Plymouth Digital Photographers Club recently held their 5th anniversary celebration with a low tide, light wind, dramatic clouds, passing sprinkles, and a few rainbows.

There were quite a few good flat stacking rocks at this beach.

The sun peeked out from time to time.

Although it wasn't specifically a formal party, sometimes people just want to dress up and look nice.

Umbrellas and raincoats came out a few times for the intermittent sprinkles.

But regardless the fickle weather, nothing interferes with the obvious joy of young humans playing on the beach.....

..... or indulging the grandparents (and other photographers) for more pictures.

As the light faded, it was time for "the rings of fire." Here's a good example of how  two cameras with different shutter speeds caught different sections of the flaming arc.

Sometimes it takes a few swings to get the hang of it.

But once going, it's pretty spectacular. (These two images I made at a prior event since I didn't get anything really good this time).
