Parkside Spring

A trio of photos proving that spring has arrived in Portland's Parkside neighborhood.

Flashback: Waiting for the Water Taxi, October 2016

Thursday throwback to this photo from October 2016 which looks pretty sharp on the cover of this year's Visit Portland Visitor's Guide. I didn't notice until it was cropped like this that the chain on the pier and the leash on the dog makes for a neat repetition of shapes.

Sunrise Skies

A few interesting sunrises over the past few months, taken from the kitchen window.

Waiting for a Wave

A lone buoy, doing its thing in Casco Bay.

Longfellow and the Lion

The Henry Wadsworth Longfellow statue, in Longfellow Square, which was designed by prominent Maine-born sculptor Franklin Simmons.

Park to Park

The vista towards Fort Allen Park from South Portland's Bug Light Park.

Gorham's Corner Brick and Color

A bit of color between the brick buildings at Danforth & York Streets.

The Lights on Congress

I'm really digging the new marquee at the State Theatre. It's informative and lights up Congress Square. I foresee new some photo opportunities at this spot.

Danforth in Spring

The early May cherry blossoms along Danforth Street.

Early Spring on the Prom

Getting ready for spring on the Eastern Promenade.

Shadow Globe

Backs to the world (or at least the Untitled-Armillary sculpture on Commercial Street).

Flowers at the Farmers Market

A nice stroll through the first outdoor season Portland Maine Farmers' Market in Deering Oaks Park today.
