Water Moving Under the Carriage Bridge


Yesterday, we went on a carriage ride, the longest one they have - 2 hours - seeing some of the bridges that J.D. Rockefeller had built on Mt. Desert Island. He had to have the bridges built because he had to roads built, too. The carriage ride guides provide history and at one of the bridges, you can dismount and hike about a bit to get photos. This is one of mine. It was a bit wet and I took a spill but no damage done and the photos and history were worth it. I shot this on my iPhone with Spectre.

Tiny Colorful Cabins in Maine

I've seen these tiny cabins for years on our treks to Acadia. The colors must be redone every year. This year, I finally managed to stop and get a photo of them.

Red Tinged Clouds over the Trees Photo of the Day 345/366 I took the photo last week on the way home. It was a wonderful sunset sky and I couldn't pass up taking a number of shots while it was available. These clouds with the red edges from the setting sun were a wonderful sight over these trees just behind the rolling field in the foreground. A nice evening sky for sure.

    Photo of the Day 307/365  Autumn Colors on Display by the Creek This photo was taken last weekend on our mini-vacation. We were on our way home and happened to find a pull-off - in the rain - and I took some photos by this creek. The colors just seemed to pop in the damp drizzly weather but the camera couldn't quite capture the bright colors. I didn't want to over-edit it but this is close to what I experienced that moment.

Tracks into the Sunset Photo of the Day 342/366 This photo was taken last evening on the way home from work. I took a number of photos and could not quite get the sun peeking through  the clouds. This is the closest I got. I love the colors in the sky and the reflections in the railroad tracks. I've taken this scene before, but it always makes me think of life moving on and on, rolling into the sunset of life - as I get older, those thoughts become more frequent.
