My View of Life on the Dock
Thomas Philbrook writes-
Been photographing a lot of objects on mirrors lately so I can depict reflected objects in bodies of water. These rubber duckies seem quite at home in the old harbor here in Rockport, MA.

This little beach is right behind our building. Surprisingly, this is just how the image came out of the camera. The only Photoshop was some sharpening. Even the gull on the rock is original!

Thomas writes-
Located in Gloucester’s Bay View neighborhood is a little inlet called Hodgkin’s Cove. One of the little gems on our side of the bridge. Here’s a recent springtime view.

During this particular sunrise, our little inner harbor in Rockport, Massachusetts was ablaze with pink.

Ahhh, the sacred Motif — the holy grail of many an artist.

In Rockport MA — Toad Hall Bookstore on the left — our tired old building on the right. There’s no place like home.

Thomas Writes-
I took the liberty of adding the fog to this scene in Rockport’s little inner harbor. It makes for a more atmospheric picture.
Thomas writes-
Good Harbor Beach is the largest beach we have on Cape Ann. It’s a beauty!

Thacher Island, off the coast of Rockport, is the home of twin lighthouses. Looking forward to visiting the island this year.

Another stitched-together series of shots from our 3rd floor perch over Front Beach & Sandy Bay in Rockport, MA. One of those wild summer thunderstorms — brief but intense.

Unfortunately, The Appledore no longer calls Rockport her home. But it’ll live on in many an artist’s work.

Thomas Philbrook Writes-
This is the view from our deck above Front Beach in Rockport — stitched together from three shots. We get to watch Summer thunderstorms whip across Sandy Bay from west to east. This is one of those storms last year. I confess to adding the schooner on the right — but this is pretty much the way it looked. Cross my heart.

Just north of our downtown in Rockport, Massachusetts is the neighborhood of Pigeon Cove. Its little harbor is a home for a few of our community’s remaining lobster boats & pleasure craft.

Lobstrng At Back Beach, originally uploaded by Thomas Philbrook.
We have two small beaches in downtown Rockport, the more popular “Front Beach” — and this one, “Back Beach”. This picture is as much about clouds as the beach. I love clouds!
That’s some serious photoshopping right there boys and girls

Thomas Philbrook writes- Just another day in the neighborhood. Maybe Rockport could use a new icon anyway.
