End of a Decade, Plymouth, Massachusetts, USA



My first post to this blog site began a decade ago. This marks 2,583 posts since that beginning.

This scene is downtown Plymouth on a recent winter's night. I had to wait a while for these few pedestrians to wander by in the cold.

Best wishes to my many loyal readers for the decade past and the decade beginning.

"Divas With A Twist," Spire Center for Performing Arts, Plymouth, Massachusetts, USA



The "Divas With A Twist," returned to Plymouth's Spire Center for the Performing Arts for a rousing evening of both Christmas music and their regular rock repertoire.



The sold out crowd was not disappointed.



They have performed in Plymouth many times over the recent years, both at the Spire and on the waterfront at the Project Arts series.



The attentive crowd always goes home happy.  In real life they are moms, and nurses, and bus drivers, and performers but share a common passion for powerful music. They are always a pleasure to hear and see.

Live Theatre Photography, Manomet, Plymouth, Massachusetts, USA



I have published thousands of posts over the past decade seen by readers all over the world, many about live theatre events at my local Priscilla Beach Theatre. Those of you who have followed this website over the years know that I have quite a passion for both live theatre and live theatre photography. To celebrate and recognize that fondness, I have created a new website that locates many of the posts about my theatrical experiences in one concise location.

I hope you will visit this new site, enjoy it, sign up for email receipt, and add it to your favorites. Click on the following link to visit: Live Theatre Photography

I haven't posted anything new recently to it and I don't expect to until theatre season ramps up here in May. Of course, if I get a call from Boston, or New York, or London, or Paris, or Milan, or elsewhere needing my services and keen eye and experience, I'll be off on that adventure. If you know anyone looking, send them my link : Live Theatre Photography

Sights of Winter, Tidmarsh Wildlife Sanctuary, Manomet, Plymouth, Massachusetts, USA



A leaf locked in ice. After today, the days start getting longer - spring is on the way - but first, the beauty of winter is upon us.



Squirrel food locked in ice.



A reflected birch.


The sun angle is very low on the solstice day, even at midday.

A Recent Snowfall, Manomet, Plymouth, Massachusetts, USA



It's difficult to surpass the natural beauty of a fresh, gentle snowfall in progress.



It's too cold in an unheated sunroom to hang out much but, it sure looks pretty.



And when the snowfall stops and the light begins to pierce through the trees, brilliant white highlights appear here and there.



It was only a couple inches total but, I'll take it! All the beauty but no shoveling required - an ideal storm.

"Aztec Two-Step '2.0' and Friends," Spire Center for Performing Arts, Plymouth, Massachusetts, USA



The Spire Center for Performing Arts in downtown Plymouth brought Aztec Two-Step to their stage recently. Beginning with a Boston folk club in 1971, Aztec Two-Step (and now 2.0) has been entertaining audiences for nearly five decades.



Some of the players have changed but, they still make great music together.







Support the performing arts in our local community - Plymouth, Massachusetts - or, wherever you may live in the world.

"And the Seasons........," Manomet, Plymouth, Massachusetts, USA



".....they go round and round..." (Joni Mitchell)



Same view late spring.



















We didn't get much snow in southeastern Massachusetts - only an inch or so - enough to turn this evergreen pine to white - compared to the 20+ inches in most of the state.

Before a Storm, Tidmarsh Wildlife Sanctuary, Manomet, Plymouth, Massachusetts, USA



Before the storm arrives, the wall of rain is less than an hour away. Too bad it's not colder or we'd have a great snowstorm of stunning beauty. What a sky!
