When I go out to shoot the town of Marblehead, it is not uncommon for me to find at least five different compositions in good light and then have to select one to share and place others in the archive. On this day, I had set up at the pier of the Pleon Yacht Club which offered me a number of photographic possibilities. This week, I wanted to share five different images captured from 3:45pm to 4:05pm on Christmas in Marblehead.
I couldn’t pass up a chance to shoot Abbot Hall in this light so I composed this image to include the Boston Yacht Club and waterfront homes leaving enough room for their reflections to show in the waters of Marblehead harbor broken by the empty buoys.
