Description
The Fore River has many wharves which keeps the lobster and fishing vessels safe. These boats have yet to be boarded by their captains and will most likely be heading out soon. This is a quintessential New England lobster boat scene. I only wish I could deliver the salty air to you through this photograph!
Rest Time was taken in Portland Maine along the Fore River, just behind Harbor Fish Market. Elizabeth named the image Rest Time, because the lobster boats featured in the photograph are at rest after a long day out on the harbor collecting the lobsters from their traps. It's an iconic photograph highlighting the working harbor in and among the fashionable shops, restaurants and hotels in downtown Portland.
