I got the concept of this image two years ago while cycling here. It is one of our favorite places to bring our bikes. I thought that this observation tower would look great in silhouette at sunset. The problem is that the gate to the refuge closes at some point around sunset. Supposedly, the gate will automatically open for exiting vehicles, but I was a bit skeptical. I parked in nearby Newburyport and cycled the 6 miles to the refuge. I figured that if the gate was closed, I could get out along the beach. It was a nice evening for riding, though fewer bugs would have been nice. And the gate did not shut before I exited.

I heart your photos. 🌸
Thank you so much. Cheers 😊
Photo was worth the effort!
Oh thank you so much. It was a fun adventure. Cheers
Nice shot and glad you weren’t trapped.
Thank you. Me too but it would have added to the story.
Love the “lattice” theme

Thank you. I really like how this looks out there in the salt marsh. Cheers
Great shot! Bugs are the terror of every nature photographer 😂
This place has a real bug problem this time of year. I won’t be back there til late summer.
Maybe with a strong repellent too, just in case 🙂
An awesome foresight and you really have an artistic vision, Chris!
