Almost Sunset At First Encounter Beach In Eastham On Cape Cod Bay

It was a beautiful almost sunset as the sun was starting to go down behind a bank of clouds at First Encounter Beach in Eastham on Cape Cod Bay. Temps were in the single digits and there was snow and ice everywhere.

I loved this photograph of the sun setting behind the bank of clouds over Cape Cod Bay with the snowy beach fence in the foreground.  The colors were just spectacular!

  1. All that fire and then that icy water and dunes! Beautiful and forbidding at the same time.

    Here’s a Robert Frost poem about fire and ice, but it’s not as hopeful as this scene which we know will be followed by a sunrise!

    Fire and Ice

    Some say the world will end in fire,
    Some say in ice.
    From what I’ve tasted of desire
    I hold with those who favor fire.
    But if it had to perish twice,
    I think I know enough of hate
    To say that for destruction ice
    Is also great
    And would suffice.
