content: Seascape sketch showing a view of the low sun reflecting its light off of the surface of the ocean near Newfoundland island, Canada. Rippling ocean waters extend from the foreground to the horizon in the background, and reflect the sun's light along a central vertical axis. Above, the hazy, possibly rising sun illuminates the edges of low lying clouds near the horizon.
