In the Sky

Something a little different - Just some interesting and dramatic clouds outside my window last week. A good visual of how good clouds can make for good sunrise/sunset photos.

Looking East, Above Commercial Street

A classic view above Commercial Street from the Portland side of the Casco Bay Bridge. Each time I've taken a photo from this spot the lighting is a little different and something new always catches my eye.

Full Moon Rising, June 2016

Tonight's full moon rising beyond the Cathedral of The Immaculate Conception. Viewed from across Back Cove. Always a good spot to catch the moon rising this time of year.

El Galeon

A wharf-level view of the tall ship named El Galeon, which is currently docked at Maine Wharf. The boat is open to the public until June 12. It's worth checking out even if you only see it from the land.

Lower Manhattan Layers

From my New York trip back in May, a look at the layers of buildings in Lower Manhattan. I've always enjoyed the effect layering different elements in a photo, so this is a great spot to practice that.
