Fishing Boat On the Ways
I’ve done a lot of photography on Cape Ann. One of my favorite locations to shoot is the Gloucester Marine Railways, which refers to the huge sled-like machine that can pull a multi ton boat of the water. It is on the ways.

Above The Great Marsh
Today’s self assignment:
The Great Marsh is a long, continuous saltmarsh in eastern New England extending from Cape Ann in northeastern Massachusetts to the southeastern coast of New Hampshire. It includes roughly 20,000-30,000 acres of saltwater marsh, mudflats, islands, sandy beaches, dunes, rivers, and other water bodies.
