I love stormy days on the beach and this was a good one at First Encounter Beach, where the Pilgrims first landed on Cape Cod. The rains had stopped but the wind was blowing and there were a few people enjoying the stormy day.
The first photograph is looking out toward Wellfleet and Provincetown. The second photograph is looking back toward Rock Harbor.
It was high tide yesterday morning when I went for my early morning bike ride. The big old fishing boats were following the channel markers at Rock Harbor on their way out to sea.
Rock Harbor has such an iconic view with the unique channel markers that resemble trees growing in the water.
The flats at low tide tide on Cape Cod Bay are different every time you see them. I loved this photograph of the flats between Rock Harbor and Boat Meadow. It’s so amazing how far the tide goes out at low tide and then how far it comes in at high tide.
So pretty, don’t you think?
