Very Nice! East Quoddy (Head Harbor) light in New Brunswick is my favorite place!

And, for the record, your Pemaquid photo is the BEST photo I have ever seen taken of this light from this angle (viewpoint). This can be a very tricky light to photograph with lighting (angle of sun), tourists, adjacent property line, etc.

Two thumbs up! Excellent. I look forward to seeing more photos from your trip. I trust you and Sue are having a wonderful time in Maine!

Another beautiful group of photos Paul. But have come to expect nothing else from you! smile

Agree with Christopher, the Pemaquid photo is really good. When I was there last September I was trying to take a photo from almost the same angle, but could not seem to get a shot that did not contain a number of other visitors. We were there on a Saturday though, so I would think historically more visitors on a Saturday. Beautiful blue skies!

Here are a couple of Nubble, it was overcast by the time we arrived and it started pouring down raining just moments after we left..

Where's the lobster pic from restaurant across from Nubble?
Looks like blue skies for your LI Sound Cruise today.

The cruise was canceled due to high winds, and I had lobster that night, after Nubble lighthouse but it was baked stuffed lobster in Portsmouth, NH..

It poured from the moment I got through shooting at Nubble until about 10:00am the next morning heading into PA. We are in Ohio tonight and we will be home before noon tomorrow in plenty of time for Colts game with the Giants tomorrow night..

I did have lobster prepared five different ways in all on the trip..

Nice pics. I love Lobster and am jealous. Every time we go to Maine and stop at Nubble we get a lobster roll there. Its my favorite stop.

Hey, the ladders are gone at Nubble! When I was there on the 27th August, the lighthouse had a few 30-foot ladders around it...and of course, amazing light that evening...aah well!

Love the photos!
