under the church
The church was locked.
So all I was left with was peeking underneath it; I’ll admit that the view is really pretty dull but I do like the way the wood lattice on the other side reminds me of leaded glass windows.
Also – while “St. Brendan” might sound like the patron saint of golf shirts or something, he’s actually the patron saint of sailors, travelers, and whales. And if you only take one thing away from this post, I hope it will be that whales have their own saint.

full service
This farm stand was a full-service operation.
There were pumpkins, tomatoes (including ones marked “seconds” but that looked a delicious as the other ones), flowers, honey, squash, apples, etc. And in the side room, there was a tank with live lobster.

sea/glass
I started the run of photos from my trip with a sunset, so I guess it makes sense to end with a sunrise…
The way those waves were backlit by the rising sun fascinated me: it reminds me of molten glass. And you can go ahead and relax because I will only post this one image (of the 100 or so that I made of the exact same thing).

ivy league (sort of)
The cemetery chapel was covered with ivy that was just starting to think about putting on its fall reds, which would have been a beautiful display. But, really, I didn’t hate the way it looked when I saw it, and especially liked the way the wavy gold glass was peeking through the leaves.

still water
My friends and I went down to the water to see if the sunset was going to be worth photographing. (It was, as you may have already seen in a previous post.) While we waited for the sky to go out in a glorious flame of orange, we wandered around taking photos. You know, the way you do.
