Took a quick 20 light journey to downeast & midcoast Maine recently. Thought I'd post a couple shots that came back so far. Maybe post a few more later.

And to think we thought poor old Rodney had given up lighthousing! Great pictures, thanks for sharing.

Nice shots, Rod! I especially like the fog shot in your first photo. I love seeing photos of lights I have never been to. One of these days I will get to Maine...

Very nice Rod. I would love to get back to Maine and spend more than a day. Thanks for posting them.

Nice to hear that you got to do some lighthousing Rod. Those range lights are neat, quite the walkway! Would love to see more of your super photos. smile

Okay, when I'm at Fort Point in a few weeks, I know to go trekking into the woods.

Outstanding work, Rod!

Larry,
When you are at Fort Point, try backing up to the woods as far as you can go to avoid a wide-angle lens (a little tough here). It's always a good idea to avoid the dreaded 'wide angle lean' when shooting architecture. Don't forget the bell tower on the other side of the light!
