"When I realized that every morning I would see this light again, I could not describe my joy. I decided not to leave Nice and stayed there practically all my life"
( Henri Matisse )

When in 1917, at 48 years old, the painter discovered Nice, the light and reflections of the Mediterranean Sea aroused an unparalleled emotion in him. From 1921 to 1938 the artist lived in an apartment in the lively Cours Saleya, in Old Nice. From the balcony of his studio on the 4th floor overlooking the sea, he positioned his models in carefully arranged and highly theatrical settings, using an array of props, furniture and fabrics from his own collection.

When we had the clouds around at the Rachel Carson NWR earlier in the day I was hoping they would stick around for sunset once we reached Pemaquid Point. Was not disappointed when they stuck around :)
Here sunset was about an hour away ... soft sunlight fighting to get through the cloud bank made for some nice conditions at the lighthouse. Found one of the nice reflection pools and then slipped on the 400ND filter to smooth out the reflection there on the breezy water. Two years ago when here under the same light it did not even occur to me to use the ND filter for this purpose ... have learned a lot since then. A post from two years is show below in the comments.
For this vertical comp I placed the subject centered ... and I think that work well given the location ... though I took other comps :))
Pemaquid, Maine
I was told by some local birders that seeing a White-eyed Vireo in Cuyahoga County in November was a pretty nice find. I was also told that getting a clear shot of one of these quick movers is pretty tough. I would have to agree. Taken in a thicket of low bushes at Huntington Reservation Metro park.
