Description
The harbor at Rockport, Massachusetts, is U-shaped and I took this from the bottom of the U looking out toward the mouth of the harbor though it's hard to tell from the angle. Small dinghies or rowboats, are tied to the near wharf. Though in shadow, their colors and "ready" position anchor the scene. Larger fishing boats are moored farther out. In the background on the left and lit by the setting sun is the famous Motif #1, a red fishing shack on Bradley Wharf, so called because it has been painted and photographed by literally countless artists and tourists.
