Actually, Compo Cove
Has the feel of an oil painting … it’s textural.
Nice!
Good call, Craig!
Great shot! It’s also a wonderful design and a gift to those passing by✨✨
What precisely is the dividing line between Old Mill Beach and Compo Cove? I mean, my understanding has been that the homes on the strip of land only accessible by foot are what constitute Compo Cove; and that the adjacent beach which curves from the parking area to beyond Positano’s is Old Mill Beach. If that is the case, what do you consider the dividing line in the water between the Cove and Mill Beach. (And I realize this is not an official territorial line similar to New York and New Jersey in the Hudson.)
The mill race separates the two Fred. The island where the Kelloggs and Frankles lived is between Old Mill and the Cove.
Very cool picture!!
