Today the isolated spot where Longfellow penned his famous lighthouse poem is one of Maine’s most popular tourist attractions. Lines of tour buses glide through Fort Williams Park to the large parking lot near the lighthouse. After extensive renovation, the keeper’s quarters opened as a museum in 1992, and there is a gift shop on the grounds as well.

The wind was streaming rivulet of sand at a high rate of speed a few inches off the ground. Standing in the flow created a very surreal feeling for me. I had a lot of fun shooting this morning despite the fact that ended up with a thick layer of sand inside my car....and in my ears.
