Sunset at Popham Beach on Maine’s midcoast.

Jellyfish at the Quebec Aquarium, Quebec City, Canada.

Ever since I was a small kid I’ve always been fascinated by moving water — whether it’s a waterfall in a mountain stream or crashing surf at the coast. This surf is just below Otter Cliffs in Acadia National Park.

A foggy June morning on Sand Beach in Acadia National Park. Fog always adds a nice multi-layered effect to the landscape. At a place like Acadia, it also has a tendency to keep the crowds down. For some reason, many tourists don’t like foggy days because they can’t see anything. I like the fog, and the effect that it creates is pretty neat to look at. 🙂

Compared to mid-summer, Popham Beach can be a quiet place on a winter day. I was able to capture these ripples undisturbed by footprints.

One very early June morning I happened to be the only person on Sand Beach in Acadia National Park. I was lucky to meet up with this harbor seal in the surf.

A perfect end to a summer day at Acadia.

The remains of Hurricane Hermine produced a dramatic storm surge on the Maine Coast. As if I needed another reason not to go in the water at Acadia’s Sand Beach in addition to the water being intolerably cold.
