Because I was on sabbatical from my university during Fall semester, I decided to go “home” to New England for a few weeks to enjoy the gradual arrival of autumn. I stayed in a rented property at Fogland Beach in Tiverton, RI and from this beautiful home base, wandered all of New England trying to capture it all in photos.
Always look up in autumnThis is Fogland Beach, a small peninsula in the middle of Sakonnet Bay in Tiverton, Rhode Island.
