Back from another trip, with two new observing proposal deadlines looming at the near horizon. It has been too long since last time I went out happily snapping with my camera, and I am missing it. This one if from one of my last outings at Crane Beach... March in New England is still quite cold. Not cold enough for a few selected people that like strolling on semi-deserted beaches, though, and love the sound of the waves crashing hard on the cold sand.
