On Thanksgiving morning, the conditions seemed right for a dawn/sunrise shoot and so I woke up early and headed down to the State Street landing area. I ended up walking to the end of Ferry Lane and set up to capture the sunrise in front of the Harbormaster office.
I began shooting four lobster boats lined up in front of Marblehead Neck and the lighthouse with great clouds reflecting the morning light. As the light built, I turned toward the causeway and composed this image with a single boat. The light was beautiful at this point in the morning and I was thrilled with the image as soon as I saw it on the camera’s rear lcd.
It was only when I returned home and began working on the image that I zoomed in and noted the name of this boat – First Lite.
