Time Lapse: A Stunning Salem Harbor Sunset [VIDEO]

This time lapse video of a Salem Harbor sunset was taken Tuesday evening.

Every time we post a local sunrise or sunset photo on our Salem Patch Facebook page, the "likes" and "shares" come pouring in.

For the last week or so, I've been heading out around 4:30 p.m. with a digital camera in the hopes of capturing a time lapse video of a sunset over Salem Harbor.

On Tuesday, the weather gods provided a beautiful sunset and I was able to capture the video above from a vantage point at Stramski Beach in Marblehead.
