Blue hour there in Bar Harbor, Maine. Increased the ISO here to lessen the shutter speed (as the boats were moving some) in the low light. The warm light is from the town.

Zoomed in view of the ships docked there in the harbor.

Took the ISO higher here in the late blue hour to keep the exposure shorter and thus the boats from moving less.

Happy Monochrome Monday ... view today there at Bar Harbor with the large cruise ship anchored.

Bar Harbor at low tide. Neat light there as sunset was happening overhead.

Long exposure full frame view of the blue hour in Bar Harbor. Miss this, and hope to return there some day again.

Bar Harbor as evening gives slowly way to night.

Increased the ISO here to keep the shutter speed shorter as the water was not completely calm and the boats were moving about.

Late day light over Bar Harbor's harbor :)

Extending the shutter smoothed out the reflection allowing for the pink 'x' to form.

The 95 ft Angelique ketch was built in 1980 to depict an English fishing trawler (circa 1880) that fished the North Sea. Her tanbark sails reflect the common practice in England to treat sails with tallow, tannic acid, and red ocher to make the cotton canvas more resistant to mildew. She does windjammer cruises out of Camden, Maine, but this day we saw her enjoying a fine wind near Bar Harbor. www.sailangelique.com/welcome-aboard/

Sunset in Acadia National Park in Bar Harbor, Maine.

Colors were peaking in the sky at this pretty sunset at Bar Harbor, Maine.

Took this exposure to 5 seconds to smooth out the reflection a little without having the boats move around too much.

Neat clouds dominated the sky in the afternoon at Bar Harbor, Maine.

Neat hotel there in the evening in Bar Harbor, Maine.

HBM :)

... in Bar Harbor. Well maybe not the other 'Half' ... but the well to do :))

Took the long exposure about as far as I could with the boats not moving too much out there. They looked pretty in the twilight all lit up out on the water.

Extended the zoom to 105mm to get a closer view of this little boat out on the harbor. Knew I did not want too long of an exposure as the boat was anchored, but still moving a little in the slight breeze. Went to ISO 800 and 5 seconds, which seemed to be a good balance.

The person there on the pier looking at her phone was my eldest daughter during our photographic tour of Maine this past early Fall. I yelled to her that the view was pretty cool from down below ... she told me to be slow and fall ;)
