Whaleback Lighthouse, Kittery, Maine. Shot from the pier in Fort Foster Park, I had to get creative on this 100 second exposure shot at 200mm on a crop frame. My tripod couldn't handle the high crosswinds on the day and every exposure was coming out blurry. In the end I braced my camera and lens against the railing of the pier, held on tight and tried to hold my breath and make my heart stop beating for the duration of the 100 second exposure. In the end this was the only keeper.
I live on the coast of Maine so if I want to see great color in the sky it generally means a 4am wake up call to make the drive to a coastal location to watch the sun come up over the ocean. For me it's a real treat to watch the sun set at 7 pm at an amazing location like White Pocket in the Vermilion Cliffs National Monument area here in northern Arizona desert.
Well... Not sure what else to say about this one. It's the Tower. It's the Portland Head Lighthouse. It's in Cape Elizabeth , Maine.
