Epic Sun Rise – Nubble Lighthouse, York ME
This was the most dramatic sun rise either Cheryl or myself have ever seen in our lives. We were staying at a roadside motel right on the main strip at York Beach ME. We had a 2nd story, corner room, which was closest to the beach and had a wrap around porch. I had only gotten about 4-1/2 hours sleep when I heard Cheryl walking around on outside. Moments later she comes storming in, barely unable to contain her excitement, stating “get up, get up, you’ve got to shoot this sun rise”! Honestly I was exhausted and tried to get her to leave but she kept saying “you’ll regret not…

Boothbay ME
Cheryl and I were looking for a little downtime and found it in the quiet, quaint, seafaring village of Boothbay ME. Population approx. 3000 people many of which don’t live there year round. It is a summer tourist attraction although we arrived in mid September and most of that bustling activity was behind us. We stayed at the Tugboat Inn.

Eight rooms on the south side where we stayed and I believe more rooms on the north side as there were two floors and a…

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. This was perhaps one of the most serene peaceful and beautiful locations that we had ever photographed. Unfortunately my image doesn’t pay justice to what you really feel when you’re here. When you walk away from the parking area into the grounds and see this majestic view of the ocean and it’s absolutely breathtaking rock ledges you’ll be had. Once back in my office and looking at my images I had wished that I shot a…

Boathouse in York ME
While driving around scoping out potential shots we drove by this old boathouse and immediately knew it had shot potential. We then got up early one of the mornings, during our stay at York ME, and headed over. Of course, the buoy’s are what makes it so eye catching. We were fortunate to get there before the workers or boaters arrived and had the place to ourselves. Photographed with a Sony A7RII, 42.3MP, full framed mirrorless camera and a Sony 24-105mm F4 lens @ 24mm. 1/500th, f11, ISO 400, Aperture priority
