Have gone back to this incredible morning I had in Acadia National Park back in 2012 ... my tastes in processing have changed a ton since then. Sticking here with less adjustments from what came out of the camera. Previously had way to much contrast, saturation and clarity adjustments. The was plenty of drama going on here to begin with ... and actually desaturating the reds helps here I think.
We woke up early and drove up to Cadillac mountain at Acadia National park to catch the sunrise over the city. After a long wait in the cold (and slipping and nearly smashing my camera in the fall) we were witness to a pretty cloudy and non photo-worthy sunrise. So we headed off to Jordan pond to explore it before the crowd got in and was greeted to this great view.

This is my next-to-last image at Acadia in October. At 10 minutes before sunrise, the Eastern sky was illuminated by bright, bottom-lit clouds. So no direct sunlight but nice warmth.
Out of Acadia was here for their last day 'sunrise image' session. About 15 lined up in a row on Boulder Beach. But I had scouted this location earlier in the week, so a new composition to work on. Still, there are four persons in this image. Can you find them?

A view of the rugged, Acadia seacoast along Park Loop Road in Acadia National Park. The fog had lifted on the morning I was pulling out so I was lucky to grab a shot of something other than white :-)
Acadia National Park is designated as a dark sky preserve. Still there was quite a bit of sky glow in the area of Bar Harbor (far right) with Blue Hill and Ellsworth in the distance in this westward looking view. While the Milky Way is a prominent part of this image, I was excited to catch a glimpse of the Andromeda Galaxy (top-center).

A stunning sunset view over Acadia National Park, capturing the interplay of orange and red hues in the sky as the sun dips behind the hills, with serene waters reflecting the last light of the day. A breathtaking moment in one of Maine’s most scenic locations.
Mommy Merganser lead her two chicks along the south shore of Jordan Pond. Watched her at the causeway leading to the east shore path, then found her later closer to the outflow stream. Luckily, had my 100-400 mm zoom in my bag.

After sunset at Acadia National Park near Bar Harbor, Maine. Trying to squeeze out some final shots of the day. Near Otter Cliffs on the SE side of the park and right next to the Thunder Hole which is hard to shoot due to all the people hanging around it.

Coastlines are like forests. At a glance it is easy to think they are all the same... or at least mostly the same with minor variations here and there. But if you look close enough for long enough you realize that they are more often more different than they are the same. The forests I walk through on Mt. Hood are very different from those of the Columbia River Gorge or those I find myself in at Cape Arago.
Coasts are the same. Sure, at their absolute most basic level they seem very similar: you have a continent of land bordered by a vast ocean of water. But spend enough time on a coast and you appreciate the breadth of variety there is to be found. I was reminded of this with my visit to Acadia, which is a much different coast than what I have experienced in Oregon. At the most fundamental level it is eastward facing instead of westward and while you may not notice this difference immediately it has a profound effect. But there was so much more to Acadia beyond that that I enjoyed discovering. And I fervently hope to be able to return some day and learn even more of it. But for now I have this image to remind me.

This is another image showing a walking path in the Great Meadows part of Acadia National Park on a cold October morning. I played around with this one a little more. Please also visit: www.acadiamagic.com/.

Another capture from Acadia National Park at dawn.

This is the first sunlight on US soil on any particular day. There are parts of Maine that are further East and therefore should get earlier sun but they are not as high up as this mountain 1550ft.
