My youngest daughter and I enjoyed a dinner outside next to the bay in Bar Harbor, Maine, with this incredible sunset as a backdrop.
Visiting this beach in Castine at sunset is a pilgrimage for us every year we come to the cabin… In these photos you’ll see why. We’ve never had a bad sunset from here!
I was at a meeting with my son in someone’s lovely home adjacent to a bay on Long Island Sound yesterday, where I captured this sunset from their dock at low tide.
I enjoyed two gorgeous sunsets from the same spot Harborside while in Boston! Enjoy the photos…

My daughter and I made our annual trek to the Schoodic Peninsula which is another separate region of Acadia National Park, about an hour north of the main part of the park.

We had never done this before and it entailed getting there via the “mail boat” to Duck Harbor, which leaves from Stonington, on Deer Isle, Maine, in the morning, and returning on it … Read more

We had fun chasing Block Island’s sunsets. We could imagine what riches a longer stay would garner if these were the ones from our short stay! Our last sunset was the ferry leaving for the mainland when our sunset was swallowed by an immense black cloud which would later prove to be an impressive thunderstorm … Read more
I was drawn outside because I noticed that our driveway and the street were purple. (See photos below. They really were purple!) We had just completed yet another thunderstorm and the light was peculiar… intense sunset colors were forming in the east. The longer I watched, the deeper the eastern sky got until a few … Read more
I had dinner last night with two friends visiting from Maine, at a picturesque spot just a few feet away from the Hudson River. It was a lovely evening. The restaurant was called Half Moon, and it didn’t escape us that there was a half moon in the sky as well. The light was … Read more
Both the light and the weather this afternoon were strange. There was balmy 43 degree air with snow falling and bright sun; it was spring and winter, day and night all at the same time. See other photos below.
