A lobster boat and traps glow in the sunset - getting ready for the morning run!
Approach Along the Allee
The last bright rays of sunlight beckoned me outdoors for a few shots after supper tonight. Brisk winds, and chilly air sent me home again quickly!

April Sunset
Time for fishermen to get their fishing gear ready!
Sunset Dock
Sun setting between the clouds on a chilly, windy evening!
