Well done John. The drone certainly gives a nice perspective of things from the view above. Love the light and the shape of the beach against the sky. You got the touch from your dad and honed your skills.
Cedar Point is one of my all time favorite places in Westport. Its natural rock is full of life in its tidepools, and I remembering it as one of my favorite fishing spots. I have been wondering since 1955 why there was ever a jetty constructed there and have from time to time wondered whether it could be removed to leave this wonderful natural feature to its own devices.
