Mullen over the Atlantic

image

The Forth of July in Kennebunkport Maine was one of those high drama days along the coast. Storms building in from the west. We took a stroll (actually my wife was strolling, I was photo-prowling) along what is called Parson’s Way…a narrow sea-side park that runs along the top of the rocks from the Colony Beach in Kennebunkport, around past St. Ann’s Church on its point, and out onto Cape Arundel as far as the overlook for the George Bush Estate behind locked gates and Secret Service guards on its own point. This shot is along the way. I could not resist the two stalks of Mullen, the bit of visible bench, the ocean bonsai and the clouds, with just a hint of reflection in the sea.

And again, the ZEISS Touit 12mm f2.8 lens comes through with an image that would be very hard to capture with most other lenses. Sony NEX 5T in Superior Auto caught the exposure. Processing for HDR effect in Snapseed on my tablet completes the task. It is a challenging composition, but it works for me 🙂
