Two watchers sit on an overturned rowing boat above the harbour, their yellow coats muted by the fading light. Seen from behind, they face the water and the village together. A small flask rests in the man’s offered hand between them. The woman’s long braid and dark skirt lie against the rough, weathered hull, which is grounded in the grassy slope.

Below, white cottages descend toward a curved stone quay. Some windows are dark, others glow faintly, and one central house shines steadily across all its visible openings. Lantern-holding neighbours gather along the harbour wall, with small children close to the adults. Carved pumpkins mark steps and windowsills, bringing a quiet Halloween presence to the familiar coastal setting.

Fishing boats sit close together in the enclosed water. Their masts cross short amber reflections, while lobster pots collect beside the lower path. Beyond the harbour, rocks break the sea beneath a purple and peach evening sky. The two calm figures seem separate from the gathering below, watching the pattern of light settle over the hillside.
