Sturbridge Common in the Winter - Sturbridge, MA
 
Driving around Sturbridge this week, there have been many opportunities for winter photography.  Here are some pictures from around the Sturbridge Town Common.  

The town common is a central gathering place in Sturbridge.  It played a role as a battle ground in the Revolutionary War, but these days it is used for recreation.
 
The common is bordered by numerous antique homes that help Sturbridge retain its quaint historical personality.

After five years of living in this neighborhood, the sunrise remains one of my greatest delights.  The early timing of dawn in the spring brings us not only longer days, but more spectacular colors and light each morning.  In this photo, the sun has just popped over the crest of the hills to the east of Sturbridge.  It's my pleasure to share this wonderful scene with you.     -Kathryn Acciari
