On July 1st, I headed to Marblehead Neck on a commissioned shoot to photograph a grand home on Harbor Avenue.  I walked the grounds with the home’s owners (and their dog) and found a number of great views of the house and surroundings as I explored the property.  When I turned the corner and saw this view of Abbot through the trees, I knew I couldn’t leave without capturing this image.

I ran back to the car for my longer lens and set up for this view of Abbot Hall with boats moored in the harbor all framed by trees and foliage on a perfect Summer day in Marblehead.
