The Mad Max Catamaran sails past the Edgartown Lighthouse in Edgartown Harbor on Martha's Vineyard. Built in 1828, the original lighthouse was replaced by the current one in 1938. It was built in Ipswich and moved by barge to where it now stands. The Mad Max is a charter catamaran that sails out of Edgartown Harbor.

An early morning sun illuminates the buildings and trees at the entrance to Peddocks Island. The large building toward the rear right was the barracks for housing Italian Prisoners of War during World War II. The building in the left foreground was the Guard House. The small building to the right in front of the barracks was the Carpenter Shop. This photo was taken from the beach at Hull High School.

Antietam National Battlefield in Sharpsburg, Maryland... although peaceful, invoked eeriness as I looked out from this vantage point located on Smoketown Road. Some of the fiercest battles on September 17, 1862 were fought in this area known as the Cornfield. That day of fighting left more than 23,000 men killed, wounded, or missing-the highest amount of any single day during the entire Civil War.

The early morning May light creates subtle pastel hues on the First Parish Church, located along Main Street and Cohasset Common, in Cohasset. (The church was used in the 1987 movie, "The Witches of Eastwick".)

A very enjoyable subject to photograph. This Tiger Swallowtail butterfly was sipping nectar from a Cone flower, also known as the Echinacea Plant here in a Norwell garden.

A 101 years old and still going strong. I had heard about this cash register at the Sylvester Company in Hanover. I just had to get a photograph of it. By coincidence, the day I stopped in to visit, was on the cash registers 101st birthday. The cash register still works, and when the computers and electronic registers shut down for one reason or another, this old faithful standby of 101 years old still rings up the sales.
