23rd Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Travel
High tide in the marsh.

This picture is a view looking west at the marsh in Caumsett State Park. It was taken standing on the embankment on the side of Fishermans Drive. The house is on land which is not part of the park. The group of trees in the background on the right is Fly Island. The very thin horizontal white line in the middle is the sand bar. The high tide seen in the picture is higher than usual due to the tidal cycle.
