View from Bubble Rock (well, one of the Bubble Rocks pair) in Acadia NP. We see Eagle lake and Mt. Desert Narrows in the distance, with the Maine mainland beyond. Far away on the horizon is Mt. Katahdin, the northern end of the Appalachian trail.

Going back in time here to a lovely morning along the coast of Maine in Acadia National Park. 150 seconds exposure along the calm sea at low tide. The light on the wet rocks was very pretty.

 

Also, this was not long after getting the Canon 5D Mark III cameras. Has been a great camera now for 7 years. Have not have had to get any work on them done, even after all these years of extensive use and abuse out there in the elements.

Morning there along the Maine coast.

Early blue hour along the coast of Maine. This is a stitch of two 30 second exposures taken to get the wider view.

Acadia National Park, ME

Really like the rocky shore here in this section of Acadia National Park. So much to explore there ... and compose :)

Morning along the coast of Maine.

Stacked some ND filters to get this several minutes of exposure with the passing clouds there along the coast of Maine.

The beautiful coastline of Acadia National Park in Maine, USA, is a geological potpourri. The colorful rock, sand, sea vegetation, sea, and sky all come together in snapshots in time. At least that is how it felt with this one from along the coast near Otter Cliffs, September, 2021.

Acadia National Park is an American national park located along the mid-section of the Maine coast, southwest of Bar Harbor. The park preserves about half of Mount Desert Island, part of the Isle au Haut, the tip of the Schoodic Peninsula, and portions of 16 smaller outlying islands. It protects the natural beauty of the rocky headlands, including the highest mountains along the Atlantic coast. Acadia boasts a glaciated coastal and island landscape, an abundance of habitats, a high level of biodiversity, clean air and water, and a rich cultural heritage.

 

The park contains the tallest mountain on the Atlantic Coast of the United States (Cadillac Mountain), exposed granite domes, glacial erratics, U-shaped valleys, and cobble beaches. Its mountains, lakes, streams, wetlands, forests, meadows, and coastlines contribute to a diversity of plants and animals. Weaved into this landscape is a historic carriage road system financed by John D. Rockefeller Jr.[4] In total, it encompasses 49,075 acres (76.7 sq mi; 198.6 km2) as of 2017.

 

Acadia has a rich human history, dating back more than 10,000 years ago with the Wabanaki people. The 17th century brought fur traders and other European explorers, while the 19th century saw an influx of summer visitors, then wealthy families. Many conservation-minded citizens, among them George B. Dorr (the "Father of Acadia National Park"), worked to establish this first national park east of the Mississippi River and the only one in the Northeastern United States. Acadia was initially designated Sieur de Monts National Monument by proclamation of President Woodrow Wilson in 1916, then renamed and redesignated Lafayette National Park in 1919. The park was renamed Acadia National Park in 1929.

 

Recreational activities from spring through autumn include car and bus touring along the park's paved loop road; hiking, bicycling, and horseback riding on carriage roads (motor vehicles are prohibited); fishing; rock climbing; kayaking and canoeing on lakes and ponds; swimming at Sand Beach and Echo Lake; sea kayaking and guided boat tours on the ocean; and various ranger-led programs. Winter activities include cross-country skiing, snowshoeing, snowmobiling, and ice fishing. Two campgrounds are located on Mount Desert Island, another campground is on the Schoodic Peninsula, and five lean-to sites are on Isle au Haut. The main visitor center is at Hulls Cove, northwest of Bar Harbor. Park visitation has been steadily increasing in Acadia over the past decade, with 2021 seeing a record count of 4.07 million visitors

I'd love to sit on top of the rock, watching the ocean wave. :-)

Along the coast in Acadia National Park.

Some slight sunlight was making it through the fog bank there along the ocean.
