John and I ended up taking photos from very near the same spot to get the moonrise behind Thatcher Island, but then he moved on to other locations. Here are a few of his (amazing) photos.



Catch more of his photos on Flickr!
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.
Great Stuff!
Reblogged this on Perpetual Learner.
Very nice John….especially the one of The Fisherman At The Wheel!
Wow – awesome!
I love the strobe of the Eastern Point lighthouse! I tried to get it the last time I was in Gloucester, but my automatic camera wouldn’t capture it. The moon shining over it is spectacular!
Stunning!
Great photos John. And I really enjoyed your Flickr page.
I love the vantage point from the first shot. very nice!
