The Portland Headlight - one more photographic approach.
This shot stayed untouched, yet very often looked at and thought about in my photo library for about six months. And after this time it took me several months worth of editing and re-editing to come up with this final photograph. Why? Here is the story...

Photographing the Portland Headlight in Maine.
One of my last photo shoots before the big move across the ocean brought me to Portland, Maine. The destination was the Portland Headlight, a lighthouse built in the late 1700's in a dramatic setting. The shoreline surrounding the lighthouse is cliffy with steep rocky beaches. Absolutely beautiful.

Being at the right place at the right time.
On one of my last trips along the norther East Coast in the U.S. I made it up to Cape Neddick in York, Maine. My destination was the Nubble light house. Since this was a rather spontaneous decision I made it there in the mid afternoon on a sunny Sunday - amongst busloads of other tourists. But being patient enough, I managed to capture the image of the Nubble Light house below.Although it looks rather unreal, this is done at the right time with the right equipment.
