Boulder Beach
FYI, if you search official maps of Acadia you will find no reference to a place called 'Boulder Beach'. I even asked a park ranger, who said he'd been there 45 years and never heard of it. I went back to where we were staying and googled it, and sure enough it is not a myth. Instead, it is likely a name given by other photographers, rather than something official.
Anyway, this particular image was almost an afterthought. I had worked on some other compositions, and was cautiously maneuvering on those smooth round boulders, when I noticed the lone cloud catching the early light. I decided to give it a shot (pun intended). I had to shoot vertically to fit it in.
