As I had mentioned in my post last Wednesday, my son and I were scouting New England lighthouses to find locations for his upcoming movie. We drove to our hotel in Edgecomb, Maine which is located close to the Pemaquid Peninsula. The next morning, we headed about 30 minutes from Edgecomb to the tip of the peninsula where the Pemaquid Point Lighthouse is located. The lighthouse is situated on top of a huge rocky promontory with dramatic views in every direction. The surrounding rocks have deep ridges caused by the perpetual pounding waves of the ocean. The lighthouse was commissioned by John Quincy Adams in 1827. Today, visitors can visit the lighthouse and museum.
If you climb down one side of the rock promontory, there is a small collection of water where you can see a reflection of the lighthouse. On this morning, it was quite windy causing non-stop ripples in the water. It was a waiting game and the wind never totally stopped blowing to get the glass-like refection I was hoping for. After a while, the wind died down a little for a minute or two and I snapped this shot.
Sick shot, Len. What a work of art, love it!
This looks like a reflection in an eye. Really cool, man.
Very creative Len. Fantastic work!
Nice! I like the crisp reflcetion of the light house and soft lines of the grey rock. Looks like a splendid place!
This is really cool Len, sometimes we forgot to look for stuff like this, but you’ve nailed it for sure. Awesome work, I love the details and colors you’ve captured!
Pemaquid is one of my favorite lighthouses to shoot. I really like the composition you chose and how the morning light warms the side of the building.
Very cool Len! That’s a great change of perspective.
Great image Len. The reflection and its framing through the rock is perfect.
it pays off to be patient! I’ll have to get back East to the New England area. Some wonderful scenery there.
Great composition. Nice shot!
This is one nice reflection shot. The isolation of the puddle, the wonderful focus on the reflection, and the great tones make this one sweet frame. Very nice!
OK, that one took me a second to get back up off the floor! AWESOME shot here Len, that reflection is totally splendiferous!
This is beautiful Len, I like how the lighthouse is framed by the puddle.
Very artful shot. Very nice.
