Timeless Compo

Posted on December 30, 2016 | 16 Comments

As we think about the end of one year, and the start of a new one, this is a great time to enjoy a “timeless” shot of a favorite Westport scene.

Happy New Year to all beach lovers!

      I’ve seen a lot of amazing photos of Compo, Longshore and Westport, but this may be my all-time favorite. Thank you, and happy new year!

      Patricia,
      I love the photo as it’s a spot where my Dad would take us every weekend when we would walk to the pavilion from his house at 340 South Compo Rd. I would love the opportunity to purchase an 8 x 10.

      Patricia,
      This photo is beautiful! I keep returning to the image in my mind and on 06880. I’d love to have this image in my study or office. May I have your permission to print or to purchase a print or the rights to print from you?
      Thank you!

    Thanks, Joelle. And no, Patricia, it never gets old — but you have REALLY made it fresh!

    That’s a beautiful shot. I walk there several times a week. Special view.
    Happy New Year Dan! Thanks for this great slice of Westport every day.

    A most remarkable photograph with that dense, threatening sky in the
    background. Lucky for you, Patricia to live so close to Compo to experience
    these amazing sights and to want to share them with all of us…Julie Fatherley

    A painting, or a photograph that would be a perfect Liberty Puzzle!
