Chappaquiddick, an island a few hundred feet from the bigger island of Martha's Vineyard, is a universe of its own. Like other precious places near the sea, it is a joining of elemental things—marshes, beaches, water, and sky—a realm whose beauty spans all seasons. 

Morning Shore captures in both words and photos this love of place. It is a seasonal recounting of this special environment matched with lyrics, poems, and prose. 


At the end of a sparkling day,
the sun takes its bow and descends off stage
on its way to someone’s sunrise.
