Rock Harbor Beach in Cape Cod with Clam Tree

Low tide and calm wind lined up with sunrise so I headed down to the Cape to shoot the "clam trees" (channel markers for boaters that are unique to the tidal flats of Rock Harbor), but all of the trees were broken except for this one, so it became my subject that I photographed from several angles and focal lengths over the course of an hour or so.

From this vantage point the sunrise was to my back, but I got some great color that wrapped around the horizon along with morning light that illuminated a small strip of land in the distance. It's also an angle where the clam tree appears straight even though it is not.
