"Scituate Light"
I am embarrassed to admit that with all of the lighthouses that I have shot, the one closest to my home - Scituate Light - was not one of them!
Well, that distinction changed in July of this past year when I joined a small group of photo friends from Hockomock Digital Photographers! We spent close to two hours waiting for the sun to set and then deciding on the right angle to capture the lighthouse against the sky. Unfortunately, Scituate at sunset is a very popular destination for the locals and those visiting the area. Just prior to the setting sun about fifty people appeared at the base the structure and all around the area.
Patience paid off as the sea of humanity was gone right after the sun disappeared. We hung around and this was my favorite shot.

Better get out the atlas as this year I will be featuring some of the more famous cities of the world! Here are some interesting facts about one of them. Just what city would I be visiting?
This city
has been a millennium-long center of
culture, religion and power and has had a strong influence across the globe in its twenty-seven hundred years of
existence.
Today, most
of its beauty is due to the Renaissance
period, a time when attractive squares were built like the Piazza del Campidoglio and amazing
churches like the world’s largest
cathedral, were built.
Visitors
enjoy seeing its monumental buildings, such as the Colosseum, which was built when emperors like Nero ruled. There is
also the impressive Pantheon which was
created more than eighteen hundred years ago. A must see for most tourists
is the popular Trevi Fountain which
is one of the most beautiful fountains in the city.
Really,
really stuck? You are kidding me, right? Then it's the capital of the country and is called the “Eternal City.”
