New England Landscape: Fisherman's Shed, Rockport (Motif Number 1)
The red fisherman's shack in the harbor of Rockport, MA has virtually become the symbol of the northern Massachusetts maritime landscape. It is known to landscape painters as "Motif Number 1." Formerly a fishing village, Rockport is now a renowned artists' colony. For the history behind Rockport's red fisherman's shack, see No Ordinary Red Shack.

The Halloween fall foliage season in New England: It just doesn't get any better than this! Best of all, it's free. And here are some free Halloween pictures to enjoy. You'll find the brilliant red foliage of the maples, the harvest orange of a laughing pumpkin, a farmstand displaying colorful gourds and Indian corn -- and much more.

In exchange for granting free use of these pictures for non-commercial purposes, I ask two things:

  1. Please give credit to David Beaulieu
  2. Please include a link to my URL, www.landscaping.about.com, within the credits (if you are using the photos on the Web), or at least refer to this URL as your source (if using the photos in print, as for a school project, for instance).
