Its time for the line queue at the classic maple in the Portland Japanese garden. The line queue was not so bad when I got there. I have tried a few different years to get this at its optimum time. I came close this year, but still not quite ripe. I plan to visit again next week to see if its closer to flat-out-crazy. In the mean time, this one should help you get into Fall. Enjoy.
Had a great day out in Portland Bill yesterday and the light was just perfect in every way. Made very good use of my K5 with a circular Polerizing filter
Olympus E-M5
OLYMPUS M.12-50mm F3.5-6.3
Heavy waves so went with the old E-M5, and old kit lens. I and camera got soaked but no damage, just lots of fun and plenty of great photos
This tree is only 6' tall! I got on the ground and shot this through an opening in the foliage around noontime on a clear day. I'd suggest going earlier or later if you can. I didn't have a choice.

From lovely Portland, Oregon. Walking around in the city, I encountered several old perimeter walls that had been preserved after the buildings had been taken down. They were mostly quite interesting–with textures, colors, decorations and windows that added to the urban landscapes. This is a detail of one of them.
Portland Canal is a fjord on the border between Alaska and British Columbia, the right side is Alaska and the left is British Columbia. From here it's approximately 155 km or 95 miles to the open waters of the Pacific Ocean. The piles are remnants of a wharves that were here during the areas heyday.
Portland, Maine U.S.A.
I've been so fascinated with wintertime at the ocean since I've moved to Maine. It's such an adventure to me. Off-season is the best!
There are so many beautiful pictures of this lighthouse. I really can't compete, but I gave it a shot. I really would like to go back when the sun is setting.
Yep. I went out in 23 degree weather for this. I'm easily amused, no?

It was extremely windy on this trip to Portland, with 40-50mph winds. There was so much spray that it was a case of continually wiping the filter, waiting for what looked like a good wave and then quickly taking a shot! The filter was covered in spray again within seconds. Was a fun and rewarding visit though. This is taken with my back to the Pulpit Rock, for protection from the wind and for safety.
Back when Delaware-Lackawanna ran three times a week to interchange with Norfolk Southern at Slateford Junction or Portland, a trio of ALCO/MLWs pass underneath the Lackawanna Cut-Off bridge over the Delaware River near Slateford Jct. At the time, C636 3642 sported a freshly-applied nose herald, which was sorely needed! You won't find regular freight activity down here these days unfortunately, but at least the Delaware-Lackawanna is still going strong.

Portland Head Light in Cape Elizabeth, Maine was commissioned by George Washington and has been in operation since January, 1791. It is said to be the most photographed lighthouse in North America. This photo was taken on my trip to Maine in June, 2009.
Happy New Year to all my Flickr friends! :-)
Conrail’s Bangor & Portland Subdivision Bangor Local switches a few cars in the small yard just south of Portland, Pennsylvania. Two former Erie GP7’s are based in Bangor at this time.
I had been to, and shot from the Pittock Mansion viewpoint before, but my buddy has not, so we set out to see what we could find. We were hoping for a lot of fog. Nope. There was a bit, but you had to be creative to use it. "Creative," when used by photographers, usually means zoom lens. Here I used my Sigma 150-600 and stitched a panorama from 3 frames. It was so cold up there, but worth it.
Let me know what you think.
I took this while wandering around the West End of Portland, Maine. I liked the very neat appearance, the colors, the fence, and the large blooming rose plant. It appears to be a triplex. HFF
Tonight’s after sunset glow over Portland Bill Lighthouse in Dorset was beautiful. I nearly left as it was so cold and the sun took a dive behind heavy clouds half hour before this. I am glad I hung around now. This was a nine minute exposure using a ten stop filter to create the milky water and movement in the clouds.
