Gorgeous Autumn Foliage in Acadia National Park

I’m glad I headed up Cadillac Mountain yesterday on my way home from the annual Maine Association of Realtors Convention to capture the foliage this year; today’s wind and rain may just cause many of the peak-colored leaves to fall.

 


Good Morning from Maine…

I think this is the Norwegian Spirit on its way to Bar Harbor, Maine…

There is an abundance of beauty in cold and snow, you just have to be open to seeing it.


Waterfalls in Acadia National Park, #Maine…

If I had the tripod with me, these could have been so much better. Guess I’ll just have to go back this Fall and shoot some more 🙂

The crisp morning air in mid to late August on MDI reminds me that foliage season is approaching…this was on the Parkman Mountain trail, looking up at one of the Rockefeller bridges.

for those of you who don’t know about a “cairn”, it’s a directional marker on a hiking trail, often created because there are no trees around to mark to lead the hiker in the right direction. Often on bald or rocky sections, “cairns” are created to allow the hiker to follow. Sometimes rocks are painted, or have a blue “blaze” paint mark on them, but “cairns” are much more fun and have personality. Sometimes people add to them. They’re sculptural.
