Boat blown ashore on Quincy's Wollaston Beach, echoed from 1930

Original: Blown by nor'easter onto Quincy's Wollaston Beach: August 1930 by the great Boston Herald photographer Leslie Jones... .

A sailboat was blown onto Quincy's Wollaston Beach during a nor'easter, prompting comparisons with a famous August 1930 Boston Herald photograph of a similar scene by photographer Leslie Jones. A Boston Globe photographer, David L. Ryan, captured a strikingly similar image from the recent storm, nearly a century after the original, drawing attention to how the shoreline scene repeats itself.

Why now: The visual parallel between a 1930 storm photograph and a new image from the same beach makes the history-meets-present comparison compelling.
