Last week, a good friend took me out on his boat. We started off at Salem Harbor and explored the outer shores of Marblehead and the Neck. By 7pm, we were approaching Brown’s Island via Doliber Cove. As we headed in, Brown’s Island rotated and the sky opened up and I was given this perfect scene of golden light with Marblehead Lighthouse seen in the distance.
I mentioned previously that I took a LOT of shots on this two hour trip. Much of that was due to the conditions with light changing rapidly and the need to keep adjusting to the movement on the boat. At the end, I had some 750 images to go through and about 250 after removing poorly exposed or out of focus images. This is one of 17 that I carefully processed to bring out the incredible beauty that Marblehead offers to those approaching it by sea.
This shot of Brown’s Island was an immediate favorite with the beautiful light, subtle reflection in the water and the lighthouse in the distance. Hope you like it.
