Erin and I woke up early to view the sunrise and avoid the crowds at Nubble Lighthouse, one of the most popular lighthouses in Southern Maine. Before the sun coould come up, I set up my camera on some rocks (lacking a tripod), and took some longer exposures with my ND filter.

The Atlantic was so calm, as can be seen from this image. Even with a 4 second exposure, the water still has a placid look to it.

From the top of Cadillac Mountain in Acadia national park, there is an endless sea of forest until the forest meets the sea.

Passing through New Hampshire on our way to Maine, Portsmouth New Hampshire turned out to be a really cute New England town.

This little storefront right across from the harbor reminded of those little towns in Italy.

We read about how this was one of the most photographed lighthouses in Maine, so we decided to check it out because it was only a few miles away from our Bed and Breakfast.

When we got there and walked down to the lighthouse, we were dissapointed. We had heard there was a better view. While we were walking back to the car we saw a small dirt path and decided to check it out. It was a path to the rocks below!

The lighting proved challenging for this shot because of the harsh sunlight as sunset approached. As a result HDR proved extremely useful on this photo.

This is Maine as Maine is pictured in my imagination. Islands, Lighthouses and Sailboats.
