L is for Lighthouse .......
Affectionately know as The Nubble, this light resides on a small island of steep rocks that is accessible by a seat that is hung from a pully line. It extends across from the mainland for supplies to be sent across.
This photo was taken last autumn, and it is always crowded there with bus loads of tourists. When we were there, there were two weddings going on, a man ocean fly-fishing, and divers just coming in from an evening dive.
Photographers, artists, and sightseers of all ages were vying for a spot on the rocky shore to enjoy this historic beauty.

ABC Wednesday - L is for Lighthouse
It was early evening by the time we arrived at the Cape Neddick Lighthouse, and the light was falling just right on this famous landmark.

Beautiful lighthouse. I have seen several lighthouses posted today. Yours is gorgeous.
Very good shot and idea for L.
Kathy, the light houses look just beautiful against such a nice blue sky. Anna :)
That a beautiful picture of a piece of living history! It could easily have been taken in these areas as we have them all along the coast.
A worthy L.

Great shot Kathy, I've always loved lighthouses, something so haunting about them to me.
What a great capture; you have a real gift! It feels like a fall day, but it also has such a warmness to it. Lovely!
I love the lighthouse!
Several lighthou8ses today and each one unique. They remind me of our visit to the Westport Light--the museum had the original old light crystal.
Thanks for sharing, Anna has said what I wanted to say, :)

I can see why this spot is in high demand by photographers and visitors. The colors are spectacular.
Lighthouse is a great "L", the colours are absolutely perfect. What wonderful autumn light. With all those people about, you did very well to avoid them in your photo!
That is a beautiful picture of a beautiful lighthouse!
Lovely shot!
The Nubble Light is my second secret special place at a Lighthouse in Maine!
