\"Window<\/a>

Window Work<\/p><\/div>\n

The Goddard mansion, which overlooks Ft. William Park and the back of the hill Portland Head Light is under, still stands as a ruin. It was a private home when built, but the army turned it into quarters before it was abandoned. It has some of the most impressive stone-work I have seen in a long time. Apparently it was built of local native stone, which seems to have been hand quarried and shaped for building. Interesting. The parapets actually seem to be rubble with a flat stone cap.<\/p>\n

Windows always catch my eye, and when, like this one, they frame interesting shapes and textures and light…they are all the more interesting. I zoomed out to medium zoom range to frame.<\/p>\n

Sony DSC H50 at about 180mm equivalent. F5.0 @ 1\/500 @ ISO 100. Programed auto. -.7EV exposure compensation.<\/p>\n

In Lightroom this shot needed a good deal of fill light for the interior shaded areas within the window. Added Clarity and Vibrance in the Presence panel. Sharpen landscape preset.<\/p>\n

This is the full facade for comparison.<\/p>\n
