Permaquid Lighthouse, ME
Cheryl and I had targeted the Permaquid Lighthouse in New Harbor ME as a must shot for us. Upon arriving, in early September, we were quick to confirm that we certainly were not disappointed.

“Eagle rock”, Hebron CT
When driving through the town of Hebron CT on RT 66 be on the loooking for this painted Eagle on a piece of outrock adjacent to the road. It’s actually between Stonehouse and Buck Roads near #516 Rt. 66. The rock has been painted since 1989 and has become a sort of landmark. It’s my understanding that the town embraces the artistry and that periodically town’s people will touch it up. When I took this photo I was happy to see a number of American Flags in the foreground. Photographed with Nikon D7100, Nikon 18-55 mm lens @ 55 mm. 1/160 sec; f/8; ISO 400
