Plan a stay

At the photography talks we attended in Rockport on Monday evening, one of the speakers emphasized how effective a photograph can be when the principle element(s) are above a horizon. He showed a number of examples of this. I took this the next day on Bailey Island in Harpswell. This tree has been photographed by many others. It is located on the shore of Mackerel Cove. There has been lots to fog lasting until midday in the area recently.
