Bench with a View
A bench with a view of the Boston skyline from Piers Park in East Boston.

Sunrise at Manomet Point
Sunrise at Manomet Point in Plymouth, MA. I’ve visited this location in the past but didn’t get a chance to explore the area below. A “No Trespassing” sign had been posted nearby.

At first, I wasn’t sure where the best location would be, but I eventually chose Duxbury Beach. The idea was to capture the historic Powder Point Bridge in the foreground, adding some interest…
