If this was around Cow Island, the background of Rattlesnake Is. and Diamond Is. would be more of a broadside view, if you could actually see both islands from Cow Is.

If I am looking at Cow Is correctly, the beach you referenced appears to be in a cove on Cow. If I am correct, and looking at the island with the house on it from that beach, if you draw a line from the beach to the island and continue it to the other shore, it hits the shoreline in between Windleblo Rd and Bowker Rd.

My observations are from Google Earth. Still have to believe we are looking at Rock Island in Gilford, with the views of Diamond partly hiding Rattlesnake, and the land mass to the left to be Welch's Is.

Sorry to disagree, and is done respectfully so.
