PDP (Plymouth Digital Photographers) 3rd Year Anniversary Party

On a beautiful, warm, clear Saturday evening, July 7th, about 45 photography friends  (PDP link) gathered at Plymouth Beach for a party celebrating our 3 years as a photo club. We couldn't have asked for a more perfect evening, great light, lovely children, talented and friendly photographers and spinning, burning fireballs! Everyone brought a dessert to share, their cameras and tripods and we were a very happy bunch!!

 The tide going out, giving us lots of room to play.

Great reflections and beautiful children.

July 3rd Celebration at White Horse Beach, Manomet.

A long standing celebration the day before July 4th, roads are closed off at 6pm, no parking signs all over Manomet, police and ambulances at the ready and a ton of Fireworks!! Add a few thousand happy people and you have the annual 3rd of July fire and beer extravaganza.

 Joe and I walked to White Horse Beach via this little path from our home nearby.

 A full moon last night, perfect weather and low tide, fantastic!
