It was a glorious beginning to the sunset  with the new snow on the sand at First Encounter Beach on Cape Cod Bay. The colors were magnificent as it shone over the water.

Breathtaking, don’t you think?

There is a little river that flows behind First Encounter Beach into the salt marsh that is really pretty at low tide. If you park at the end of the road into First Encounter Beach and walk down the path away from the beach, you will find this little river which is very high at high tide and very low at low tide.

I thought this was a cool photograph that shows the sand ripples at low tide. What do you think?

I rode my bike down to First Encounter Beach in Eastham  so I could get a photograph of the beautiful beach early in the morning.

I loved this photograph. I laughed when I saw that I got my long shadow and those of the signs and beach fence as I photographed the beautiful beach. Funny, don’t you think?

It makes me think that summer is almost over as the shadows are getting so much longer this time of year.
