Pemaquid Point Lighthouse, Pemaquid, Maine.

This past week, I participated in a 3-day Downeast Maine Magazine photography workshop led by Benjamin Williamson and Kurt Budliger.  We had amazing weather and beautiful skies in our ‘quest’ for sunrises and sunsets.  The days were long, beginning at 4:30am and ending well past 10pm with afternoon classroom time to preview photos and lightroom editing techniques.  Ben and Kurt are awesome photographers and their insights and instructions on landscape photography was superb.  I chose the above image for this week’s theme of ‘Quest’ as a representative of the quest for amazing sunrises and sunsets.  It was the blue hour of the morning around 5am and I had just arrived at Pemaquid Point Lighthouse and began shooting before losing the skies to the morning sunrise.
