 Back-Road Beauty
Coastal Maine can be beautiful in the Autumn – The fishing village of Five Islands is on the edge of the Atlantic Ocean. You can arrive here by boat or it is accessible by a twisting and turning back-road that is full of character. Older homes are nestled into the tree-lined landscape while churches with tall steeples stand boldly giving this area a real sense of community. This old structure had lots of character – The freshly painted door made me take a second look…… One of the many treasure you can find when you get off from the highways and byways!

 An Autumn Drive
Leena and I found a really nice church surrounded in Autumn color to photograph - When we turned around we noticed this wonderful back-road across from the church!Tamron 18-270 Di at 55mm. ISO 400, Early-Afternoon, 1/100 @ f8.0, EC +1/3

Absolutely gorgeous Jeff, both images are wonderful Maine visuals! It looks like you caught Maine at the very best time of autumn season there! The one time my husband and I went they said autumn was late and it was in the low 80's! I found one red tree at the time! :-(
