Nice pair Sergey, cool reflection in the first. The comp and conversion of the second makes that one my fav though. You even caught the light coming around.

Great compos Sergey. The wee reflection in #1 was well seen and captured. Well done!
David

Hey I've seen that reflection before
Nice captures in both.
The mood at Portland looks like it was the 1st week in Oct?

Dan

I like the b&w, very well processed.

Thanks Mike.
It was easy to capture light with exposure of about 30 sec.

Thanks David.
I found one little pool with reflection, it was pretty windy, but patience pays off sometimes.

Thanks Dan.
It was same week we met. We where coming back to Boston on thur. and stopped there for about one hr.

Two of my favorite lighthouses. Great catch on the pool reflection for Pemaquid. (I am very envious.)The Portland lighthouse is one of the most photogenic on the East Coast but it just doesn't seem as majestic in this photo. The mood is definitely there. I guess it needs a few crashing waves.

Thank you Karl.
For the second shot weather was pretty bad with gray skies, and there where about 20 people around lighthouse, so i did 30 sec. exposure to eliminate people and i think gray skies look better in B&W.

Thanks bill120.
I hope i will catch some big crashing waves next year.

I like the second one a lot, though I would prefer slightly more contrast there, and maybe just a bit more of the rocks at the bottom.

I really like the perspective of the second one. Good work.

Rich

Very nice, my pick here is your B&W conversion very nicely done

Since most of you like B&W, here is one more version of Pemaquid in B&W.
