Morning on Long Pond

This is the shot I tried to get last weekend, when I ended up with the Somesville Pond shot. It was a glorious morning, complete with a Piper Super Cruiser floatplane landing and tying up to the dock earlier. Woo hoo! I started to go into Bar Harbor this morning to shoot, then changed my mind suddenly for no apparent reason. Sometimes you gotta listen to the little voice.


Okay, I couldn't let it go without putting in a picture of the floatplane, so here it is taxiing in. I couldn't have timed my arrival any better.


These guys were heading to a floatplane fly-in in central Maine this morning, and it was all I could do not to jump in with them. Not enough room, though -- or power. Damn!


And, of course, I couldn't let it go at that. Here it is taxiing out for takeoff. Nice lighting, don't you think?
