SPRING EQUINOX AT BEACH BLUFF PARK AT PRESTON BEACH, SWAMPSCOTT, MASSACHUSETTS

The following are photographs from the recent spring equinox at the Sun Circle Sculpture, an astronomical sculpture, created by my husband, Bruce Greenwald, and installed in September 2009. You will see a pre-sunrise photograph of the ocean from the new park seawall and a sequence of photos of the sun rising between two columnar basalt columns.

This last image, early morning after the sunrise, should give you an idea of the overall sculpture.

Beach Bluff Park is overseen by the non-profit organization, the Clifton Improvement Association (CIA), www.ciabeachbluff.org, where you can see many photographs of the building of the Sun Circle amidst many of the organization and park's activities. This year, the park will be re-graded and refurbished after last year's construction of the seawall and the sculpture. This year's storms also left its debris so remediations will be attempted to minimize future damage.
