Sunrise on Harwich Port

In a year where most of us were confined to our homes and local towns, any escape was a breath of fresh air. This series of photos is from a morning in Harwich Port, where we were able to take a few days of vacation in late summer. I snuck out at first light in an attempt to find some new material and wound up driving the length of the town from Dennis to Chatham.
