Just a quick run here.  It was the morning before a storm was set to hit during the day, so figured the clouds would be interesting enough for a decent sunrise.  This one at Forest River Park in Salem, MA.

Finally found myself a new area to explore.  Out in Rockport towards to the northern tip of Massachusetts is an old inactive granite quarry.  Doesn't sound like much a scenic area, but is it ever.  The quarry is filled with water with wooded areas all around making it one of the more scenic areas to be seen in eastern, MA.

Spring has finally sprung in full, so time to get out and shoot the flowers.  Nice little hidden gem I found in Beverly, MA that even many residents of the city have no idea it's there.  An old house sitting on a reservation and garden area.  I had read it looked great in Spring, so off I went!  Definitely the ultimate relaxation spot if ya find a time it's not too busy.... some people can tend to be loud.
