Unfortunately, my second attempt with this project didn't seem to go so well. Of the 48 hours I allotted myself to shoot on film - it rained heavily for a sizable amount of time. Or at least that's the excuse I'm going with since technically I probably would have got some more interesting shots had I been shooting in the rain - I just didn't have the patience for it.
Portland Head Lighthouse. The grounds open after sunrise and close before sunset which is easily obviously frustrating when you'd prefer to capture a colorful sky. Supposedly it's the most photographed lighthouse in the United States.
Red's Dairy Freeze in South Portland. Easy and obvious place to stop after finishing up at the lighthouse for the day. It's been here since 1952 and doesn't seem like it's leaving anytime soon.
Looking south across the Fore River, which slowly feeds into the Casco Bay.
Two Lights State Park. Just about a 20 minute drive from downtown Portland. With it's rocky coastline - it's the first place where I felt like, well this is more what I was expecting out of Maine.
Spring Point Ledge Lighthouse, with Fort Gorges, the former military installation in the background.
It only makes sense to end with a wider angle shot of the famous lighthouse. Visually, Portland has managed to keep it's charm and architecture from decades past. It's a beautiful place to walk around. Only wish I had taken more photos - especially one of a lobster.
