Maine Lighthouses, Over 60 Of Them | Have A Resolution To Sample ME Lighthouses This Year.

Youngest son had to fly back in the silver bird to Colorado and after dropping him off at Logan Airport in Boston, treated myself to some eye candy, a Maine lighthouse on the way home up I-95.

maine lighthouses, portland me head light Swung in to Cape Elizabeth's Portland Head Light at Fort William on the way to Houlton Maine's ride up Interstate 95.

After seeing Lubec Maine's West Quoddy Head lighthouse this summer, something started to happen inside.

Decided need to be hiking around, snapping stills and shooting videos for this neat coastal historic treasure.

To sample more Maine lighthouses any time I can get near one along my travels.

This is the link to the Maine lighthouse video.

Captured, edited and uploaded from the close to sunset visit yesterday.

Decided also to hit more Maine public bean suppers no matter where they are in Vacationland too.

But the ones we have are friendly.

Wave at you.

Smile.

Will help you out.

Wake up and start dreaming in blue, green in Maine.

S and D ... Could be lonely but no neighbors, lots of chores, time to read and worry about sailors when the maine lighthouses, portland me head lightgale winds pick up. The ones on shore not so rugged. The lighthouses miles off shore, you are an  island, literally and like your own country. Island life in Maine is unique.

I love lighthouses. I have some relatives in Maine, so maybe you will inspire me to come there for a visit! I can't believe I have never made it there. It is now on the "To Do" list.

Myrl ... Thanks for letting me know. 66 more lighthouses to go! Every agent, broker, REALTOR should be using his or her real estate photography skills at capturing local land markets. Flickr is an excellent way to one phone at a time show the area.

This may be one of my favorite videos of yours...I am such a fan of lighthouses. The natural sound was delightful and I swear I could smell saltwater. Video to awaken the senses and transports people to a place ( where they may want to buy and home and live) is magic. Well done. ( Although, I might have added a bit of something over the still with the poem...perhaps a bit of a fog horn sfx in the distance...gulls? Maybe, I'm overthinking it. ;) YouTube Thursdays

Lou ... Come sample a few... the door to Maine is never locked, always opened. Time to come home to Maine. 

Debb ... Maine is one big honking state and so much to sample of ME right in my own back yard. Pretty easy video to collect, snip snip and render. Thanks for the "award"!

John ... 68 of them to collect. Start your collection! People collect lots of things in their lifetime.. Maine has a slew of options and every license plate is stamped as a reminder with "Vacationland".

Andy, great post and would love to see you do a series on light houses. I have mine going with covered bridges and am surprised how much traffice there is to these kinds of posts. Have you ever sold a lighthouse?

Cal ... The collection can be areas, spots, not just trinkets we enjoy. I plan too! Never sold a light house, but have sold islands. Waterfront properties on a peninsulas that would make super light house spots!

On your knees, flat and prone shooting for the best angle means not always on your feet when click click click collecting! Angles and lighting add to the subject impact!
