Bar Harbor
Bass Harbor Lighthouse
Bass Harbor Marsh by Tremont. A nice peaceful morning.
Bass Harbor pine tree. The shore winds have not been kind to this tree over the years.
Bennett Cove near Acadia National Park. A fishing trawler heading out to work.

The Searsport/Verona Island bridge
A calico lobster — very rare!
Camden: Deadman Point. Rocks and flowers.
Captain Niddles Inn in Searsport. This place was for sale so had to stop and look. The asking price was dirt cheap!
The coast of Bass Harbor — it reminds me of the rocks in Nevada outside Reno.
A view of Five Islands in Georgetown, from the lobster co-op
Friendship, Maine
Morning spider web with dew in Gouldsboro woods. The sun was coming through the forest just at the right time.
Great Americana Garage before Ellsworth on Route 3. I'm sure a lot of people have passed this spot on their way to Bar Harbor.
Islesford, Bunker Neck. I waited patiently for the birds to settle in and loved the way they were camouflaged against the rocks.
Lincolnville. On the beach with its lovely foliage and background bay shot.
Lincolnville Beach - I like what they did with this boat
Little Deer Isle at sunset
Lookout Point, Middle Bay in Harpswell. Picking up my dinner lobsters and the sun was hitting the water and casting shadows onto all the boats in the bay.
Sunset on Middle Bay in Harpswell, after a lobster dinner in the cabin.
Moosehead Lake looking north
This photo and the next one were taken at Reid State Park after a hurricane had missed the coast.

Rocks and flowers on Five Islands. The gray and purple combo worked so well together. A good soft and hard contrast.
Gulls taking flight near Seal Cove—Acadia National Park.
Camouflaged gulls on the seawall at Acadia National Park.
South Warren, along US Route 1. Nice river view — had to turn around to take this photo it was so nice.
Spruce Point near Boothbay — it was a perfect day in the harbor.
Fairfield Point in Stonington just before sunset
Sunset on Middle Bay in Harpswell, where I spend time each September
Sunset shore in Winter Harbor. The rocks just glowed with the sun.
Woods around Bass Harbor. The white moss looked like snow, plus the sun shining on it made a nice glow.
York Beach gulls. I looked up and there they were. The parents with their young.

About NRCM

The Natural Resources Council of Maine is a nonprofit membership organization protecting, restoring, and conserving Maine's environment, now and for future generations. Join NRCM today!

NRCM recognizes and honors the Houlton Band of Maliseet Indians, Mi’kmaq Nation, Penobscot Nation, and the Passamaquoddy Tribe, collectively the Wabanaki Nations. Wabanaki translates as “People of the Dawn.” The Wabanaki Nations have stewarded Maine for generations, stretching back to before colonial settlers forcibly occupied the area. NRCM’s office in Augusta is on the unceded territory of the Penobscot Nation, and all of us in Maine are on unceded lands once overseen by Wabanaki people. Let us remember this history and move forward with a commitment to justice and alignment with Wabanaki Nations in Maine. (Read full land acknowledgement.)
