Bass Harbor Head Light
Acadia National Park, Maine
Cold, crisp, salty air penatrated my face mask as the wind blew in from the Atlantic Ocean. I carefully climbed out on the wet, slippery rocks with my camera around my neck and tripod in my left hand. My right hand was holding on to my 8-year-old’s hand who wanted to be part of the adventure with me. I found a large enough rock to accomodate my tripod, myself and my daughter. I had to work fast as the sun was setting and more visitors came to capture the beautiful view. I placed my camera down and placed my 10 stop ND filter over the lens. I timed the shutter with the tide coming in to capture the water’s brisk motion on the rocks and cliffs. As the sun set further, the red lamp of the lighthouse turned on allowing me to capture a magical moment in time.
