Lieutenant River Reflections

Old Lyme, CT

The Lieutenant River is a 3.7 mile long tidal river that flows into the Connecticut River just a little upstream of where the Connecticut River flows into Long Island Sound.  The river is a popular area for artists, photographers and fishermen.  A number of noted American impressionist artists made this area their home, staying at the Florence Griswold house a few miles from where this photograph was taken.  I'm linking this to Weekend Reflections, hosted by James.  Enjoy the last weekend of 2013 and have a Happy New Year.

  1. That is a cold looking river with the wintery sky. A fine reflection in the still water.

  3. I have photographed the Lieutenant River from behind the Florence Griswold museum. It is on my blog maybe two years ago. Your photo looks great, although cold.
