Sunset Snapshots

Posted on December 2, 2011 by

It seems I’m specializing in sunrises and sunsets recently, but they have just been so beautiful, I can’t resist!

This church looks beautiful in the evening!

About Fr Matthew Green

Currently parochial vicar at Holy Family Parish, on Cape Ann (serving the churches of St. Ann, St. Joachim, and St. Anthony). I moved to the area in early August '11, and am very happy to be in such a welcoming community and beautiful location! One of my hobbies is photography. You can see my photos on Flickr and buy prints of some of them on Fine Art America. I am a daily contributor to GoodMorningGloucester (GMG for short), a blog by and about the community of Gloucester specifically and Cape Ann in general. The content is diverse, ranging from the beautiful and sublime to the earthy and occasionally offensive. I hope my contributions are of the former kind, not the latter. So, while I cannot endorse all the content that is posted there, I am grateful to Joey (the founder and admin of the blog) for giving me space to make my contribution. I also have my own blog, Perpetual Learner, which mostly includes my homilies and some re-posts from GMG, but also sometimes has other content, such as my personal reflections, videos I like, etc.

    autumn sunrises and sunsets are always the best. seomthing to do with the atmosphere and the sun’s angle in this part of the country.

    Fr. Green …. I look at that wonderful sight each day from my apartment. Each sunrise (reflection) and sunset is so different, that I must have accumulated over 200 pictures just of the sunsets! One special sunset (December 31, 2007) I caught a sunset that looked like a flaming candle inside the steeple. Like, you, I was not born here — but feel called to live here. It’s a blessing, indeed.
